  • Crystal Structure of Hillebrandite: a Natural Analogue of Calcium Silicate Hydrate (CSH) Phases in Portland Cement
    American Mineralogist, Volume 80, pages 841-844, 1995 Crystal structure of hillebrandite: A natural analogue of calcium silicate hydrate (CSH) phases in Portland cement YONGSHAN DAI Garber Research Center, Harbison-Walker Refractories, 1001 Pittsburgh-McKeesport Boulevard, West Miffilin, Pennsylvania 15122, U.S.A. JEFFREY E. POST Departmentof MineralSciences,SmithsonianInstitution,Washington,DC 20560,U.S.A. ABSTRACT The crystal structure of hillebrandite, Ca2Si03(OH)2, was solved and refined in space group Cmc21, a = 3.6389, b = 16.311, c = 11.829 A, to R = 0.041 using single-crystal X-ray data. The structure consists of a three-dimensional network of Ca-O polyhedra that accommodates wollastonite-type Si-O tetrahedral chains. Each of the wollastonite-type chains is an average of two symmetrically equivalent chains related by the mirror plane perpen- dicular to a. In a given structural channel of the Ca-O polyhedral network, only one chain orientation can be occupied to give reasonable Si-O distances. The 03 and 04 sites cor- responding to each vacant Si2 site are occupied by OH groups to achieve charge balance. The wollastonite-type Si-O tetrahedral chains in the hillebrandite structure resemble those reported for many calcium silicate hydrate (CSH) phases.

  • Chemical and Structural Evolution of “Metamorphic Vermiculite” in Metaclastic Rocks of the Betic Cordillera, Málaga, Spain: a Synthesis
    249 The Canadian Mineralogist Vol. 44, pp. 249-265 (2006) CHEMICAL AND STRUCTURAL EVOLUTION OF “METAMORPHIC VERMICULITE” IN METACLASTIC ROCKS OF THE BETIC CORDILLERA, MÁLAGA, SPAIN: A SYNTHESIS MARÍA DOLORES RUIZ CRUZ§ Departamento de Química Inorgánica, Cristalografía y Mineralogía, Universidad de Málaga, Campus de Teatinos, E-29071 Málaga, Spain JOSÉ MIGUEL NIETO Departamento de Geología, Facultad de Ciencias Experimentales, Universidad de Huelva, E-21071 Huelva, Spain ABSTRACT Vermiculite-like minerals from a metamorphic sequence of the Betic Cordillera, near Málaga, southeastern Spain, were investigated in detail by X-ray diffraction, electron-microprobe analysis, and transmission-analytical electron microscopy. Our results reveal that the chlorite-to-biotite transformation is much more complex than previously assumed. In addition to mixed- layer minerals with a mica:chlorite ratio of 2:1 and 1:1, which had previously been identifi ed, mixed-layer phases with very high and very low chlorite:vermiculite ratios have been identifi ed, together with true vermiculite, as intermediate steps in the chlorite-to-biotite transformation. The observed sequence is: chlorite → random to ordered 1:2 mica–chlorite mixed-layer phases → regular 1:1 chlorite–vermiculite mixed-layer phases → Vrm-rich chlorite–vermiculite mixed-layer phases → vermiculite → biotite. This sequence includes a continuous increase of interlayer cation content, and is similar to that described in the smectite- to-illite transformation. The high Na content of most of these phases suggests that in the absence of K-feldspar, two parallel sites of reactants, chlorite + phengite and chlorite + albite, account for the formation of vermiculitic phases, and later, of biotite. Keywords: mixed-layer minerals, metamorphic vermiculite, X-ray diffraction, electron-microprobe analysis, transmission elec- tron microscopy, analytical electron microscopy, Betic Cordillera, Spain.

  • I. Thermal Expansion of Lawsonite, Zoisite, Clinozoisite, and Diaspore
    American Mineralogist, Volume 81, pages 335-340, 1996 Volume behavior of hydrous minerals at high pressure and temperature: I. Thermal expansion of lawsonite, zoisite, clinozoisite, and diaspore A.R. PAWLEY,I,* S.A.T. REDFERN,2 ANDT.J.B. HOLLAND2 'Department of Geology, University of Bristol, Wills Memorial Building, Queens Road, Bristol BS8 lRJ, U.K. 2Department of Earth Sciences, University of Cambridge, Downing Street, Cambridge CB2 3EQ, U.K. ABSTRACT The temperature dependence of the lattice parameters of synthetic lawsonite [Ca- A12Si2 07 (OH)2 . H20], natural zoisite [Ca2A13 Si3 0'2 (OH)], natural clinozoisite [Ca2Al3Si3012(OH)], and synthetic diaspore [AIO(OH)] have been measured at ambient pressure. The volume thermal expansion coefficients for lawsonite, zoisite, and clinozoisite are approximately constant over the measured temperature ranges (25-590 DCfor lawson- ite, 25-750 DCfor zoisite, and 25-900 DCfor clinozoisite), whereas the thermal expansion of diaspore increases slightly over the range 25-300 DC.Interestingly, the room-tempera- ture volume of clinozoisite is greater than that of zoisite, but this situation is reversed above -300 DC.The experimental results may be summarized as follows: lawsonite: VI Vo= 1 + 3.16 (:to.05) x 10-5 (T - 298), Vo = 101.51 (:to.Ol) cm3/mol; zoisite: VIVo = 1 + 3.86 (:to.05) x 10-5 (T - 298), Vo = 136.10 (:to.02) cm3/mol; clinozoisite: VIVo = 1 + 2.94 (:to.05) x 10-5 (T - 298), Vo = 136.42 (:to.05) cm3/mol; diaspore: VIVo = 1 + 7.96 (:to.28) x 10-5 [T - 298 - 20 (VT- ~)], Vo = 17.74 (:to.Ol) cm3/mol.

    1 Revision 1 2 The high-pressure phase of lawsonite: A single crystal study of a key mantle hydrous phase 3 4 Earl O’Bannon III,1* Christine M. Beavers1,2, Martin Kunz2, and Quentin Williams1 5 1Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences, University of California, Santa Cruz, 1156 High 6 Street, Santa Cruz, California 95064, U.S.A. 7 2Advanced Light Source, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, Berkeley, California, 94720, 8 U.S.A. 9 *Corresponding Author 10 1 11 Abstract 12 Lawsonite CaAl2Si2O7(OH)2·H2O is an important water carrier in subducting oceanic 13 crusts, and the primary hydrous phase in basalt at depths greater than ~80 km. We have 14 conducted high-pressure synchrotron single-crystal x-ray diffraction experiments on natural 15 lawsonite at room temperature up to ~10.0 GPa to study its high-pressure polymorphism. We 16 find that lawsonite remains orthorhombic with Cmcm symmetry up to ~9.3 GPa, and shows 17 nearly isotropic compression. Above ~9.3 GPa, lawsonite becomes monoclinic with P21/m 18 symmetry. Across the phase transition, the Ca polyhedron becomes markedly distorted, and 19 the average positions of the H2O molecules and hydroxyls change. The changes observed in the 20 H-atom positions under compression are different than the low temperature changes in this 21 material. We resolve for the first time the H-bonding configuration of the high-pressure 22 monoclinic phase of lawsonite. A bond valence approach is deployed to determine that the 23 phase transition from orthorhombic to monoclinic is primarily driven by the Si2O7 groups, and in 24 particular it's bridging oxygen atom (O1).

  • Chemical Composition and Petrogenetic Implications of Eudialyte-Group Mineral in the Peralkaline Lovozero Complex, Kola Peninsula, Russia
    minerals Article Chemical Composition and Petrogenetic Implications of Eudialyte-Group Mineral in the Peralkaline Lovozero Complex, Kola Peninsula, Russia Lia Kogarko 1,* and Troels F. D. Nielsen 2 1 Vernadsky Institute of Geochemistry and Analytical Chemistry, Russian Academy of Sciences, 119991 Moscow, Russia 2 Geological Survey of Denmark and Greenland, 1350 Copenhagen, Denmark; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 23 September 2020; Accepted: 16 November 2020; Published: 20 November 2020 Abstract: Lovozero complex, the world’s largest layered peralkaline intrusive complex hosts gigantic deposits of Zr-, Hf-, Nb-, LREE-, and HREE-rich Eudialyte Group of Mineral (EGM). The petrographic relations of EGM change with time and advancing crystallization up from Phase II (differentiated complex) to Phase III (eudialyte complex). EGM is anhedral interstitial in all of Phase II which indicates that EGM nucleated late relative to the main rock-forming and liquidus minerals of Phase II. Saturation in remaining bulk melt with components needed for nucleation of EGM was reached after the crystallization about 85 vol. % of the intrusion. Early euhedral and idiomorphic EGM of Phase III crystalized in a large convective volume of melt together with other liquidus minerals and was affected by layering processes and formation of EGM ore. Consequently, a prerequisite for the formation of the ore deposit is saturation of the alkaline bulk magma with EGM. It follows that the potential for EGM ores in Lovozero is restricted to the parts of the complex that hosts cumulus EGM. Phase II with only anhedral and interstitial EGM is not promising for this type of ore.

Bentorite crystals of suitable quality were found in the Arad Stone Quarry within the pyrometamorphic rock of the Hatrurim Complex (Mottled Zone). The preliminary semi-quantitative data on the bentorite composition obtained by SEM-EDS show that the average Cr/(Cr + Al) ratio of this sample is >0.8. Bentorite crystallizes in space group P31c, with a = b = 11.1927(5) Å, c =21.7121(10) Å, V = 2355.60(18) Å3, and Z = 2. The crystal structure is refined, including the hydrogen atom positions, to an agreement index R1 = 3.88%. The bentorite crystal chemical formula is Ca (Cr Al ) [(SO ) (CO ) ] (OH) ~25.75H O.

  • Carbonation of Borehole Seals: Comparing Evidence from Short-Term Laboratory Experiments and Long-Term Natural Analogues Christopher A
    Carbonation of borehole seals: Comparing evidence from short-term laboratory experiments and long-term natural analogues Christopher A. Rochelle* and Antoni E. Milodowski British Geological Survey, Environmental Science Centre, Nicker Hill, Keyworth, Nottingham, NG12 5GG, UK * Corresponding author: [email protected], tel +44 115 9363259, fax +44 115 363200 Abstract It is crucial that the engineered seals of boreholes in the vicinity of a deep storage facility remain effective for considerable timescales if the long-term geological containment of stored CO2 is to be effective. These timescales extend beyond those achievable by laboratory experiments or industrial experience. Study of the carbonation of natural Ca silicate hydrate (CSH) phases provides a useful insight into the alteration processes and evolution of cement phases over long-timescales more comparable with those considered in performance assessments. Samples from two such natural analogues in Northern Ireland have been compared with samples from laboratory experiments on the carbonation of Portland cement. Samples showed similar carbonation reaction processes even though the natural and experimental samples underwent carbonation under very different conditions and timescales. These included conversion of the CSH phases to CaCO3 and SiO2, and the formation of a well-defined reaction front. In laboratory experiments the reaction front is associated with localised Ca migration, localised matrix porosity increase, and localised shrinkage of the cement matrix with concomitant cracking. Behind the reaction front is a zone of CaCO3 precipitation that partly seals porosity. A broader and more porous/permeable reaction zone was created in the laboratory experiments compared to the natural samples, and it is possible that short-term experiments might not fully replicate slower, longer-term processes.

  • Cation Ordering and Pseudosymmetry in Layer Silicates'
    I A merican M ineralogist, Volume60. pages175-187, 1975 Cation Ordering and Pseudosymmetryin Layer Silicates' S. W. BerI-nv Departmentof Geologyand Geophysics,Uniuersity of Wisconsin-Madison Madison, Wisconsin5 3706 Abstract The particular sequenceof sheetsand layers present in the structure of a layer silicate createsan ideal symmetry that is usually basedon the assumptionsof trioctahedralcompositions, no significantdistor- tion, and no cation ordering.Ordering oftetrahedral cations,asjudged by mean l-O bond lengths,has been found within the constraints of the ideal spacegroup for specimensof muscovite-3I, phengile-2M2, la-4 Cr-chlorite, and vermiculite of the 2-layer s type. Many ideal spacegroups do not allow ordering of tetrahedralcations because all tetrahedramust be equivalentby symmetry.This includesthe common lM micasand chlorites.Ordering oftetrahedral cations within subgroupsymmetries has not beensought very often, but has been reported for anandite-2Or, llb-2prochlorite, and Ia-2 donbassite. Ordering ofoctahedral cations within the ideal spacegroups is more common and has been found for muscovite-37, lepidolite-2M", clintonite-lM, fluoropolylithionite-lM,la-4 Cr-chlorite, lb-odd ripidolite, and vermiculite. Ordering in subgroup symmetries has been reported l-oranandite-2or, IIb-2 prochlorite, and llb-4 corundophilite. Ordering in local out-of-step domains has been documented by study of diffuse non-Bragg scattering for the octahedral catlons in polylithionite according to a two-dimensional pattern and for the interlayer cations in vermiculite over a three-cellsuperlattice. All dioctahedral layer silicates have ordered vacant octahedral sites, and the locations of the vacancies change the symmetry from that of the ideal spacegroup in kaolinite, dickite, nacrite, and la-2 donbassite Four new structural determinations are reported for margarite-2M,, amesile-2Hr,cronstedtite-2H", and a two-layercookeite.
