Accordingly, the high-pressure behavior of synthetic bütschliite has been investigated by in-situ single-crystal X-ray diffraction under isothermal compression up to 20 GPa at <i>T</i> = 298 K. The compression mechanism before and after the trigonal-to-monoclinic (<i>R</i>-3<i>m</i> to <i>C</i>2/<i>m</i>) phase transition at ∼6 GPa, found previously, is characterized in terms of the evolution of the cation polyhedra and carbonate groups. On this basis, the modulation of the axial compression is interpreted, and the contribution of the cation polyhedra into the bulk compression is estimated. The refined compressibility of the monoclinic phase (<i>K</i>₀ = 44(2) GPa) fits to the trend of the carbonate bulk modulus <i>versus</i> average non-carbon cation radius. The analysis of the obtained and literature structural data suggests the distortion of a large cation polyhedron to be an effective tool to strengthen the carbonate structure at high pressure. On the other hand, the observed symmetrization of the cation polyhedra in trigonal bütschliite is apparently a crucial factor of its stabilization at high pressure upon the temperature rise observed previously.

For some varieties, such as emerald (green, coloured by Cr³⁺ and/or V³⁺), the main cause of colour is substitutions by metal atoms within the framework.

It is generally agreed that Fe ions are responsible for the colour, but there are differing conclusions about the valence states of these ions, the occupied positions and the colour-inducing processes involved. The colour of aquamarine is commonly attributed to intervalence charge transfer (IVCT) between Fe³⁺ and Fe²⁺. Various combinations of sites have been proposed to host the Fe ions engaging in this IVCT. Here we present a new approach to address the topic of colour generation: atomic resolution scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM).

From the ratio of channel occupation and the correlation of the atoms per formula unit (apfu) calculations we conclude that Fe resides in the framework, not in the channels.

The chemical data prove that the real composition of the investigated inderite is substantially identical to the ideal one, with insignificant content of potential isomorphic substituents, so that, excluding B, inderite does not contain any other industrially-relevant element (e.g., Li concentration is lower than 2.5 wt ppm, Be or REE lower than 0.1 wt ppm).

The structure of goethite is such that vacant rows of octahedral sites form “channels” or nanopores. This study aims to investigate the response of goethite to dynamic shock compression in order to advance our understanding of minerals as potential shock-absorbing media. Shock compression of synthetic goethite powdered samples was achieved by using an inverted shock microscope and laser driven “flyer plates”. With this setup, a high-energy laser launches small  aluminum discs as projectiles or flyer plates at velocities of the order of a few km/s towards the sample. The resulting impact sends a shock wave through the sample, thereby compressing it. The compression is precisely controlled by the plate-impact speed, which in turn is controlled by laser-power. In this work, 25 µm aluminum flyer plates with 3.5 km/s impact velocities were used. The impact resulted in a planar shock wave with shock velocity (U_s) ~ 6.78 km/s and an estimated pressure of ~ 41.6 GPa. The shock wave compressed the target goethite for 5 ns. Subsequent, post-shock investigations via transmission electron microscopy (TEM) documented that crystal morphology persisted, and that goethite’s “bird’s nest” texture was maintained. Lattice fringe images revealed localized zones of distortion and amorphous regions within single goethite particles. Raman spectra appear to indicate structural changes after shock compression with the shocked goethite spectra matching that of synthetic hematite. X-ray diffraction (XRD) interestingly identified two major phases: goethite and magnetite. Irrespective of the mineral phases present, the goethite particles persist post shock.
