The crystal structure of trigonite,Pb3Mn(AsO3)2(AsO2OH)

Summary The mineral trigonite crystallizes in the monoclinic space groupPn–C _s ² witha ₀=7.26,b ₀=6.78,c ₀=11.09Å; =91.5°,Z=2. The structure was determined from 1250 X-ray intensities collected on an automatic two circle Weissenberg-type diffractometer. The final residual isR=6.5% using anisotropic temperature factors for Pb, Mn and As, and isotropic temperature factors for O.The structure consists of MnO₆ octahedra, sharing all six oxygens with arsenite groups to form a framework. The Pb atoms are attached to this framework with Pb–O distances2.23Å. One oxygen, bound only to an As atom, is interpreted as the donor for a hydrogen bond of 2.75Å.

The calcium oxotellurate(IV) nitrates Ca5Te4O12(NO3)2(H2O)2 and Ca6Te5O15(NO3)2

Single crystals of two novel calcium oxotellurate(IV) nitrates were grown under hydrothermal conditions and were structurally characterized by X-ray diffraction. Ca $_5$ Te $_4\text {O}_{12}$ (NO $_3$ ) $_2$ (H $_2$ O) $_2$ [ $Cc$ , $Z=4$ , $a=25.258(3)$ Å, $b=5.7289(7)$ Å, $c=17.0066(19)$ Å, $\beta =124.377(2)^{\circ}$ , $R[F^2 > 2\sigma (F^2)]=0.043$ , 4083 $F^2$ data, 281 parameters] can be described as a non-classic order/disorder (OD) structure, which fulfills the basic principle of OD theory, viz. local equivalence of polytypes, but does not strictly follow the vicinity condition (VC) of OD theory. The structure is made up from an alternating stacking of non-polar layers composed of isolated [TeO $_3$ ] units and Ca $^{2+}$ ions and polar layers containing NO $_3^-$ ions and water molecules. The electron lone-pairs of the [TeO $_3$ ] units protrude into the free space of the anion/water layers. The crystal under investigation was a non-classic OD-twin of domains of a maximum degree of order (MDO). At the twin plane a fragment of the second MDO polytype is located. The main building blocks of Ca $_6$ Te $_5\text {O}_{15}$ (NO $_3$ ) $_2$ [ $P2_1/c$ , $Z=4$ , $a=15.494(2)$ Å, $b=5.6145(7)$ Å, $c=39.338(4)$ Å, $\beta =142.480(5)^{\circ}$ , $R[F^2 > 2\sigma (F^2)]=0.043$ , 3026 $F^2$ data, 307 parameters] are isolated [TeO $_3$ ] units and Ca $^{2+}$ ions which are connected to a three-dimensional framework perforated by channels in which the N atoms of the nitrate anions are located and the electron lone-pairs of the [TeO $_3$ ] units protrude. The structure can topologically be derived from the structure of Ca $_5$ Te $_4\text {O}_{12}$ (NO $_3$ ) $_2$ (H $_2$ O) $_2$ by removing the water molecules and connecting the CaTeO $_3$ layers with additional [TeO $_3$ ] units and Ca $^{2+}$ ions.     

Sigioite : The oxidation mechanism in [M 2 3 + (PO4)2(OH)2(H2O)2]2 - structures

Summary The crystal structure of sigloite, Fe³ [(H₂O)₃OH] [Al₂(PO₄)₂(OH)₂(H₂O)₂]- 2 H₂O, triclinic, a 5.190 (2), b 10.419 (4), c 7.033 (3) Å, 105.00 (3), 111.31(3), 70.87 (3)°, V 330.5 (2) Å3, Z = 1, space group P , has been refined to anR index of 5.3% using 1713 observed (I > 2.5 1) reflections collected with graphite-monochromated MoK X-rays. Sigloite is isostructural with the laueite-group minerals. Corner-linked [A1₅] chains (: unspecified ligand) are cross-linked by (PO₄) tetrahedra to form a mixed corner-linked tetrahedral-octahedral sheet of composition [A1₂(PO₄)₂(OH)₂(H₂O)₂]²-. These sheets are linked by (Fe³⁺O₂(OH, H₂O)₄) octahedra and two (H₂O) groups that participate in a hydrogen-bonding network. Sigloite is the oxidized equivalent of paravauxite, Fe²⁺(H₂O)4[Al₂(PO₄)₂(OH)₂(H₂O)₂]-² H₂O, and detailed comparison of the two structures shows that the oxidation mechanism involves loss of hydrogen from one of the (H₂O) groups coordinating the Fe³⁺, and positional disorder of both the Fe³⁺ and (OH) and (H₂O) ligands.

Stability of almandine in the system FeO-(Fe2O3)-Al2O3-SiO2-(H2O) at elevated pressures

Almandine, although decomposing in the presence of metallic iron into the anhydrous subsolidus assemblage fayalite + ferrocordierite + hercynite solid solution at low pressures, melts incongruently to hercynite_ss + quartz + liquid at 10 kb. At pressures between about 12 and 20 kb the products of incongruent melting are hercynite_ss + liquid only, and at still higher pressures almandine melts congruently. For the intermediate pressures between 2 and 10 kb not investigated a sequence of probable breakdown and melting relations involving the phases ferrocordierite, fayalite, hercynite_ss, quartz, and liquid is derived through Schreinemakers' analyses.The lower temperature stability limit of almandine in the presence of water at low oxygen fugacities and pressures of 15 to 20 kb lies between 550° and 600° C as at low pressures. It is marked, however, by the breakdown to a hydrous assemblage involving chloritoid and the new phase aluminous deerite. Since the anhydrous melting at these pressures occurs between 1300° and 1400° C, the thermal stability range of almandine increases drastically with pressure. Its upper breakdown limit shows in principle a similar behavior as those of other garnet end members.

Elasticity of the pyrope (Mg3Al2Si3O12)-majorite (MgSiO3) garnets solid solution

Dense isotropic polycrystalline specimens of majorite-rich garnets (Py₁₀₀, Py₆₂Mj₃₈, Py₅₀Mj₅₀, Py₂₁Mj₇₉ and Mj₁₀₀) along the pyrope (Mg₃Al₂Si₃O₁₂ = Py₁₀₀)-majorite (MgSiO₃ = Mj₁₀₀) join were fabricated in a 2000-ton uniaxial split-sphere anvil apparatus (USSA-2000) at pressures from 10 to 18.5 GPa and temperatures from 1200 to 1850 °C, within their stability fields in runs of 2–4-h duration, using hot-pressing techniques developed by Gwanmesia et al. (1993). These specimens are single-phased, fine-grained (≤5 mm), free of microcracks, and have bulk densities greater than 99% of the corresponding single-crystal X-ray density. Elastic compressional (P) and shear (S) wave velocities were determined at room pressure and temperature for these polycrystalline garnet specimens by phase comparison ultrasonic interferometry. For Mj₁₀₀, the P and S wave velocities are within 1% of the Hashin-Shtrikman averages calculated from the single crystal elastic moduli measured by Brillouin spectroscopy. Both the elastic bulk modulus (K) and the shear modulus (G) decrease continuously with increasing majorite content from pyrope garnet (Py₁₀₀) to pure majorite garnet (Mj₁₀₀). The compositional dependence of K and G are given by K = 172.3 (40) − 0.085X, and G = 91.6 (10) − 0.038X, where X = mol% majorite), respectively, indicating that substitution of Si for Mg and Al decreases both K and G by about 5% along the solid solution series.

Characterization of NH4-phlogopite (NH4) (Mg3) [AlSi3O10] (OH)2 and ND4-phlogopite (ND4) (Mg3) [AlSi3O10] (OD)2 using IR spectroscopy and Rietveld refinement of XRD spectra

 A synthesis technique is described which results in >99% pure NH₄-phlogopite (NH₄) (Mg₃) [AlSi₃O₁₀] (OH)₂ and its deuterium analogue ND₄-phlogopite (ND₄) (Mg₃) [AlSi₃O₁₀] (OD)₂. Both phases are characterised using both IR spectroscopy at 298 and 77 K as well as Rietveld refinement of their X-ray powder diffraction pattern. Both NH₄ ⁺ and ND₄ ⁺ are found to occupy the interlayer site in the phlogopite structure. Absorption bands in the IR caused by either NH₄ ⁺ or ND₄ ⁺ can be explained to a good approximation using T_d symmetry as a basis. Rietveld refinement indicates that either phlogopite synthesis contains several mica polytypes. The principle polytype is the one-layer monoclinic polytype (1M), which possesses the space group symmetry C2/m. The next most common polytype is the two-layer polytype (2M ₁ ) with space group symmetry C2/c. Minor amounts of the trigonal polytype 3T with the space group symmetry P3₁12 were found only in the synthesis run for the ND₄-phlogopite. Electron microprobe analyses indicate that NH₄-phlogopite deviates from the ideal phlogopite composition with respect to variable Si/Al and Mg/Al on both the tetrahedral and octahedral sites, respectively, due to the Tschermaks substitution ^VIMg²⁺+^IVSi⁴⁺↔^VIAl³⁺+^IVAl³⁺ and with respect to vacancies on the interlayer site due to the exchange vector ^XII(NH₄)⁺+^IVAl³⁺↔^XII□+^IVSi⁴⁺.

Premelting and calcium mobility in gehlenite (Ca2Al2SiO7) and pseudowollastonite (CaSiO3)

 Premelting effects in gehlenite (Ca₂Al₂SiO₇) have been studied by Raman spectroscopy and calorimetry, and in gehlenite and pseudowollastonite (CaSiO₃) by electrical conductivity. The enthalpy of premelting of gehlenite is 17.3 kJ mol⁻¹ and represents 9% of the reported enthalpy of fusion, which is in the range of the reported fraction of other minerals. The Raman and electrical conductivity experiments at high temperatures, for gehlenite and pseudowollastonite, show that the premelting effects of both compositions are associated with enhanced dynamics of calcium atoms near the melting point. This conclusion agrees with the results obtained for other minerals like diopside, but contrasts with those found for sodium metasilicate in which the weaker bonding of sodium allows the silicate framework to distort near the melting temperature and deform in such a way to prefigure the silicate entities present in the melt.

Kristallstruktur und Fehlordnung des Artinits Mg2[CO3(OH)2]·3 H2O

Zusammenfassung Röntgenbeugungsaufnahmen des Artinits zeigen diffuse Schichtlinien für k=ungerade. Die vorläufige Strukturbestimmung vonde Wolff, die nur die scharfen Reflexe berücksichtigt, wurde verfeinert. Die Struktur besteht danach aus Mg(OH)₃(H₂O)₂O-Oktaedern, die über Kanten zu Ketten mit angehängten Karbonatgruppen verknüpft sind. H₂O und CO₃ alternieren statistisch in der Kette. Die elektrisch neutralen Ketten sind durch Wasserstoffbrückenbindung zwischen den Karbonatgruppen und Kristallwasser verbunden.Die Fehlordnung kann als eine Lagenstatistik der Karbonatgruppen und eines der drei Kristallwasser beschrieben werden, die geordnete Ketten mit doppelter Identitätsperiode und einer zufälligen Lage bilden. Die Theorie der Röntgenbeugung an solchen Anordnungen wird allgemein diskutiert, und die Gleichungen, die das Verhalten der diffusen Schichtlinie beschreiben, werden abgeleitet. Nach den vorliegenden Untersuchungen gibt es zwei Ordnungsvorgänge mit versehiedenen Wechselwirkungsenergien. Der eine Prozeß führt zu geordneten Schichten, deren gegenseitige Lage rein zufällig ist, der andere, schwerer zu übersehende Ordnungsvorgang ist durch Wechselwirkungen großer Reichweite bestimmt und weicht bemerkenswert von den Bauprinzipien der geordneten Schicht ab.

Summary X-ray diffraction photographs of Artinite exhibit weak diffuse layer-lines for k=odd. The preliminary structure determination byde Wolff, considering the sharp reflection only, has been refined. The structure consists of Mg(OH)₃(H₂O)₂O-octahedra, linked over edges to chains with attached CO₃-groups, which alternate statistically with H₂O. The electrically neutral chains are linked by hydrogen bonds between the water molecules and the CO₃-groups.The disorder phenomenon can be described as statistics of positions of the Carbonate groups and one of the 3 water molecules, which form strictly ordered chains with a doubled identy period and a random position. The theory of X-ray diffraction of such arrangements is generally discussed and some formulae for the diffuse layers in reciprocal space are given. Two ordering processes are found experimentally, which cannot be explained in terms of similar interactions. One of these ordering principles leads to ordered layers arranged at random with respect to their mutual positions. Long range interactions determine the second, more complex ordering process, which shows some remarkable deviations from the disordered layer structure.

Thermochemistry of (Fe2+, Mg)SiO3 orthopyroxene

Enthalpies of solution in eutectic (Li, Na)₂B₂O₄ melts at 1023 K were measured for five synthetic orthopyroxenes on the join MgSiO₃-FeSiO₃. The pyroxenes were synthesized at 1120°C and 20 kbar and thus were presumed to be highly disordered. The measurements indicate a small positive enthalpy of mixing, with W_H = 950 cal/MSiO₃.Enthalpy of solution measurements were made on a natural, well-ordered orthopyroxene near the composition En_52.5Fs_47.5 and on this material after heat-treatment at 1150°C and 20 kbar. Irreversible expansion of the unit-cell constants of the natural pyroxene after heat-treatment at various temperatures was used to characterize the degree of M-site disorder. The observed enthalpy of solution decrement of 0.85 kcal/MSiO₃ between the natural En_52.5 and the same material heated at 1150° corresponds to about half of the maximum possible disordering, or ΔX_Fe^M1? 0.25, which leads to a ΔH of 7.5 kcal/M₂Si₂O₆, for the exchange reaction: Fe(M2) + Mg(Ml) = Fe(Ml) + Mg(M2) if M-site interaction energy terms are ignored. This ΔH is larger than inferred from any of the analyses of site-occupancy data except that of Besancon (1981), who gave a very similar value. The measured ΔH of disorder and the W_H of mixing together indicate a large ΔH as great as 3.2 kcal for the reciprocal reaction: Fe₂Si₂O₆ + Mg₂Si₂O₆ = Fe(M2)Mg(M1)Si₂O₆ + Fe(M1)Mg(M2)Si₂O₆ as anticipated by Sack (1980).As a consequence of the inferred magnitudes of ΔHof the exchange and reciprocal reactions, departures from ideality of Gibbs energy of mixing of orthopyroxene are very small at 700°–1000°C. Activities of MgSiO₃ and FeSiO₃ may be replaced by their mol fractions at all temperatures in most petrologic calculations.     

Single-crystal elastic properties of alunite, KAl3(SO4)2(OH)6

The single-crystal elastic constants of natural alunite (ideally KAl₃(SO₄)₂(OH)₆) were determined by Brillouin spectroscopy. Chemical analysis by electron microprobe gave a formula KAl₃(SO₄)₂(OH)₆. Single crystal X-ray diffraction refinement with R ₁ = 0.0299 for the unique observed reflections (|F _o| > 4σ _F) and wR ₂ = 0.0698 for all data gave a = 6.9741(3) Å, c = 17.190(2) Å, fractional positions and thermal factors for all atoms. The elastic constants (in GPa), obtained by fitting the spectroscopic data, are C ₁₁ = 181.9 ± 0.3, C ₃₃ = 66.8 ± 0.8, C ₄₄ = 42.8 ± 0.2, C ₁₂ = 48.2 ± 0.5, C ₁₃ = 27.1 ± 1.0, C ₁₄ = 5.4 ± 0.5, and C ₆₆ = ½(C ₁₁–C ₁₂) = 66.9 ± 0.3 GPa. The VRH averages of bulk and shear modulus are 63 and 49 GPa, respectively. The aggregate Poisson ratio is 0.19. The high value of the ratio C ₁₁/C ₃₃ = 2.7 and of the ratio C ₆₆/C ₄₄ = 1.6 are characteristic of an anisotropic structure with very weak interlayer interactions along the c-axis. The basal plane (001) is characterized by 0.1% longitudinal acoustic anisotropy and 0.9–1.1% shear acoustic anisotropy, which gives alunite a characteristic pseudo-hexagonal elastic behavior, and is related to the pseudo-hexagonal arrangement of the Al(O,OH)₆ octahedra in the basal layer. The elastic Debye temperature of alunite is 654 K. The large discrepancy between the elastic and heat capacity Debye temperature is also a consequence of the layered structure.     

The crystal structure of Liebigite,Ca2UO2(CO3)3·∼11H2O

Summary The crystal structure of liebigite, previously only incompletely known from a short note, has been determined from X-ray 4-circle diffractometer data and refined toR=0.030 for 3005 observed reflections. Liebigite from Joachimsthal, Böhmen, was used. It was found to crystallize in the polar orthorhombic space groupBba2–C _2v ¹⁷ witha=16.699(3),b=17.557(3),c=13.697(3) Å,V=4016 ų and a cell content of 8 Ca₂UO₂(CO₃)₃·11H₂O. The structure contains UO₂(CO₃)₃ units which are linked by two kinds of CaO₄(H₂O)₄ polyhedra and one kind of CaO₃(H₂O)₄ polyhedron to form puckered Ca₂UO₂(CO₃)₃·8H₂O layers parallel to (010). These layers are interconnected only by hydrogen bonds, both directly as well as via three additional interlayer H₂O molecules, two of which show positional disorder.

Crystal chemistry of selenates with mineral-like structures: V. Crystal structures of (H3O)2[(UO2)(SeO4)2(H2O)](H2O)2 and (H3O)2[(UO2)(SeO4)2(H2O)](H2O), new compounds with rhomboclase and goldichite topology

The crystal structures of two new compounds (H₃O)₂[(UO₂)(SeO₄)₂(H₂O)](H₂O)₂ (1, orthorhombic, Pnma, a = 14.0328(18), b = 11.6412(13), c = 8.2146(13) Å, V = 134.9(3) ų) and (H₃O)₂[(UO₂)(SeO₄)₂(H₂O)](H₂O) (2, monoclinic, P2₁/c, a = 7.8670(12), b = 7.5357(7), c = 21.386(3) Å, β = 101.484(12)°, V = 1242.5(3) ų) have been solved by direct methods and refined to R ₁ = 0.076 and 0.080, respectively. The structures of both compounds contain sheet complexes [(UO₂)(SeO₄)₂]^2? formed by cornershared [(UO₂)O₄(H₂O)] bipyramids and SeO₄ tetrahedrons. The sheets are parallel to the (100) plane in structure 1 and to (?102) in structure 2. The [(UO₂)(SeO₄)₂(H₂O)]^2? layers are linked by hydrogen bonds via interlayer groups H₂O and H₃O⁺. The sheet topologies in structures 1 and 2 are different and correspond to the topologies of octahedral and tetrahedral complexes in rhomboclase (H₂O₂)⁺[Fe(SO₄)₂(H₂O)₂] and goldichite K[Fe(SO₄)₂(H₂O)₂](H₂O)₂, respectively.
