The results confirm NaMgAl(SO₄)₃ as a unique phase identical to a presumed new mineral found in the fumaroles of Eldfell and Hekla volcanoes in Iceland. It tolerates less than 10 mol% K substitution for Na. There exists a compositional gap to approximately Na_0.65K_0.35MgAl(SO₄)₃ from where a solid solution extends to KMgAl(SO₄)₃. The mineral koryakite [NaKMg₂Al₂(SO₄)₆] is a member of the latter solid solution series. The crystal structures of all (Na,K)MgAl(SO₄)₃ phases are akin to NASICON (NA Super Ionic CONductor). NaMgAl(SO₄)₃ has <span>(Roverline{3}c)</span> symmetry and a disordered distribution of Mg and Al among the octahedral sites with only one unique site for the alkali atom. The members of the solid solution have <span>(Roverline{3})</span> symmetry with ordered Mg–Al distribution and two unique alkali sites with different preferences for Na and K. In the crystal structure, the coordination of Na and/or K is trigonal antiprismatic, and these share bases with two octahedral Mg (Na) or Al (K) coordinations. These polyhedra are arranged in columns parallel to [001] and interconnected by SO₄ tetrahedral groups. The alkali atoms from a column lie in the same (001) layers as the octahedrally coordinated atoms from the three neighboring rows.

The mineral was studied by single-crystal X-ray diffraction (SCXRD) as well as infrared (IR), Raman and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. According to spectroscopic data, boron has three-fold coordination and sulfur occurs in the mineral in the sulfate form. A significant portion of carbonate groups is substituted by BO₃^3– anions. Charge compensation is achieved due to the substitution of a part of SiO₄^4– anions by SO₄^2– groups, as well as to the admixture of sodium. SCXRD shows that sodium occurs in its own site with a low occupancy. The studied sample is isotypic with the synthetic NaCa₅(SiO₄)₂(BO₃) compound. The IR spectrum shows possible partial protonation of the SiO₄ tetrahedra whereas bands of H₂O molecules and isolated OH^– anions are not observed. Thermal behavior of B,S,Na-bearing spurrite from Negra Mine has been studied using powder high-temperature X-ray diffraction (HTXRD) together with boron poor and S-free spurrite from Fuka Area (Japan).

The dihedral angle of the forsterite–melt system estimated using these interfacial enthalpies takes values in the range of 67° to 146°, showing a decreasing trend with pressure.

The relationship between the parent and inherited microblocks was established. Based on this relationship, 15 possible types of microblocks maintaining a trigonal symmetry were derived. The minerals and compounds structurally related to α-Na₂SO₄-derived superstructures were formed as a result of the cooling of the high-temperature phases containing the disordered parent microblock. Here, the inheritance driving force was the tendency of the structure to become ordered upon cooling. The reasons for the formation of a microblock from the parent microblock were mainly determined by the ionic radius and type of cation occupying the octahedral site.

In this weakly hydrogen-bonded mineral, the anharmonicity parameter, as determined from the difference between combinations and the fundamentals, is nearly constant with pressure to 15 GPa, indicating that the ambient pressure value of hydroxyl-bond anharmonicity closely reflects its value at high pressures. Given this near-constancy, the Grüneisen parameters of the hydroxyl stretching vibrations of a wide range of minerals, as derived from the pressure dependence of their O–H stretching frequencies, are correlated with the anharmonic parameter of each vibration, as determined from the ambient pressure offset of the summed frequencies of the fundamental <i>n</i> = 0 to 1 transitions and the frequency of the hydroxyl combination or overtone band corresponding to the <i>n</i> = 0 to 2 transition. This correlation is motivated by (1) the anharmonic origin of the Grüneisen parameter; and (2) the grossly similar form of the interatomic potential governing weak- and medium-strength hydrogen bonding in many minerals. This possible correlation provides a means through which the likely pressure-induced hydroxyl mode shifts of phases might be estimated from ambient pressure near-infrared measurements and emphasizes the importance of near-infrared combination/overtone band measurements. In this context, the combination/overtone bands of high-pressure hydrous phases are almost completely uncharacterized, and thus one probe of their anharmonicity has been neglected. Such information directly constrains the nature of hydrogen bonding in these phases, and hence provides possible insights into both their retention of hydrogen and its mobility. Deviations from the anharmonicity-Grüneisen parameter correlation, when observed (as may be the case in prehnite), could provide insights into anomalous effects on the hydroxyl potential well induced by bifurcated H-bonds, pressure-dependent Davydov splitting, or the influence of neighboring cations.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":20132,"journal":{"name":"Physics and Chemistry of Minerals","volume":"50 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2023-09-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s00269-023-01254-5.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134797705","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
