62Nd Annual Franklin-Sterling Gem and Mineral Show – 2018 Franklin-Sterling 2018 GEM & MINERAL SHOW SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 29th • 9-5 SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 30th • 10-4 Littell Community Center FRANKLIN, NEW JERSEY The Fluorescent Mineral Capital of the World Miners Day and Volunteer Appreciation Day, Franklin Mineral Museum, May 6, 2018 Local miners and their families have been honored by the Franklin Mineral Museum for many years. Held on the first Sunday of May, Miners Day also honors museum volunteers. Attendance is by invitation, and the festivities include a buffet lunch, a concert by the famous Franklin Band, and awards to science students in local schools. Mineral collectors and citizens of New Jersey, thank these miners when you see them! They worked to mine our state's zinc and iron ores while recovering the mineral heritage displayed in museums here in Franklin and Sterling Hill, and at many other museums in our country and around the world. Miners and other New Jersey Zinc Company employees attending this year's Miners Day: John Anderson, Al Grazevich, Bob Allen, Fred Kirk, Stephen Dekmar, Josef Man6k, John Antal, Bill Rude, Paul Rizzo, Bernard Kozykow- ski, Tom Laner, Steve Sanford, Edward Hamilton, Ted Hanson, Doug Francis- co, Richard Bostwick, Christopher Allen.

Powder specimens of garnierite were annealed in static air between room temperature and 1000 ◦C. The kinetic of the transformation was investigated by means of thermo- gravimetric and differential thermal analysis, and the final product was extensively characterized via micro-Raman spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction. Our study shows that serpentine-like garnierite consists of a mixture of different mineral species. Furthermore, these garnierites and their compo- sition can provide details based on the mineralogy and the crystalline phases resulting from the thermal treatment.

  • The Phase Diversity of Nickel Phyllosilicates from New Caledonia: an Investigation Using Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) STUDENT: Brittany A
    THE PHASE DIVERSITY OF NICKEL PHYLLOSILICATES FROM NEW CALEDONIA: AN INVESTIGATION USING TRANSMISSION ELECTRON MICROSCOPY (TEM) A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE MASTER OF SCIENCE BY BRITTANY CYMES DR. KIRSTEN NICHOLSON – ADVISOR BALL STATE UNIVERSITY MUNCIE, INDIANA MAY 2016 ABSTRACT THESIS: The Phase Diversity of Nickel Phyllosilicates from New Caledonia: An Investigation Using Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) STUDENT: Brittany A. Cymes DEGREE: Master of Science COLLEGE: Sciences and Humanities DATE: May, 2016 PAGES: 136 New Caledonia is a French territorial island in the Southwest Pacific with an economy heavily dependent upon nickel-mining, being the 5th largest producer worldwide. The nickel deposits result from tropical lateritic weathering of ophiolite units that were emplaced during the late Eocene. The ultramafic units weathered and continue to weather into bright green Ni-rich phyllosilicates colloquially referred to as „garnierite‟. Detailed investigations of „garnierite‟ using transmission electron microscopy (TEM) have been carried out in other locations to characterize important nanoscale features; however, none have been undertaken in New Caledonia. In this investigation, ten samples of „garnierite‟ from New Caledonia were examined with powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) and TEM with energy dispersive spectrometry (EDS). The XRD results show the phyllosilicate material to be comprised of highly disordered talc- and serpentine-like minerals with minor chlorite indicated by significantly broad reflections and two- i dimensional diffraction bands, consistent with published data. TEM analysis, however, revealed new information. Talc-like minerals occur as fluffy aggregates of crystals with lattices with approximately 10 Å d-spacing and significant crystallographic disorder and also as aggregates of larger crystals with more orderly lattices; these two varieties represent the kerolite-pimelite series and the talc- willemseite series, respectively.

    Franklin-Sterling 2017 GEM & MINERAL SHOW SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 23rd • 9-5 SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 24th • 10-4 Littell Community Center FRANKLIN, NEW JERSEY The Fluorescent Mineral Capital of the World Miners Day and Volunteer Appreciation Day, Franklin Mineral Museum, May 7, 2017 Local miners and their families have been honored by the Franklin Mineral Museum for many years. Held on the first Sunday of May, Miners Day also honors museum volunteers. Attendance is by invitation, and the festivities include a buffet lunch, a concert by the famous Franklin Band, and awards to science students in local schools. Mineral collectors and citizens of New Jersey, thank these miners when you see them! They worked to mine our state's zinc and iron ores while recovering the mineral heritage displayed in museums here in Franklin and Sterling Hill, and at many other museums in our country and around the world. These miners worked at the Sterling Mine at Sterling Hill in Ogdensburg, N.J., with the exception of Bob Allen, a veteran of the Scrub Oaks Mine in Mine Hill, N.J. Left to right: Rich Gunderman, Bob Allen, Dick Bostwick (in front), Dom Lorenzo, Tom Laner, Steve Delmar, Mike Hallowich, Paul Rizzo, Andy Gancarcik, Al Restrepo, Chris Auer, Ed Keith, Lenny Talmadge (in back), Bernie Kozykowski, Harvey Barlow (in back), Doug Francisco, and Bill Rude. Sterling Hill miners who were present but missing from both photos are John Antal, Al Grazevich, Mike Gunderman, Ted Hanson, Fred Kirk, Steve Sanford, Henry Wisniewski, and John Yanish. Also present for Miners Day but missing from the photos is Ron Mishkin, who worked at Franklin in the sum- mers of 1952 and 1953, and later in iron mines near Dover.

  • Single Crystal Raman Spectroscopy of Selected Arsenite, Antimonite and Hydroxyantimonate Minerals
    SINGLE CRYSTAL RAMAN SPECTROSCOPY OF SELECTED ARSENITE, ANTIMONITE AND HYDROXYANTIMONATE MINERALS Silmarilly Bahfenne B.App.Sci (Chem.) Chemistry Discipline This thesis is submitted as part of the assessment requirements of Master of Applied Science Degree at QUT February 2011 KEYWORDS Raman, infrared, IR, spectroscopy, synthesis, synthetic, natural, X-ray diffraction, XRD, scanning electron microscopy, SEM, arsenite, antimonate, hydroxyantimonate, hydrated antimonate, minerals, crystal, point group, factor group, symmetry, leiteite, schafarzikite, apuanite, trippkeite, paulmooreite, finnemanite. i ii ABSTRACT This thesis concentrates on the characterisation of selected arsenite, antimonite, and hydroxyantimonate minerals based on their vibrational spectra. A number of natural arsenite and antimonite minerals were studied by single crystal Raman spectroscopy in order to determine the contribution of bridging and terminal oxygen atoms to the vibrational spectra. A series of natural hydrated antimonate minerals was also compared and contrasted using single crystal Raman spectroscopy to determine the contribution of the isolated antimonate ion. The single crystal data allows each band in the spectrum to be assigned to a symmetry species. The contribution of bridging and terminal oxygen atoms in the case of the arsenite and antimonite minerals was determined by factor group analysis, the results of which are correlated with the observed symmetry species. In certain cases, synthetic analogues of a mineral and/or synthetic compounds isostructural or related to the mineral of interest were also prepared. These synthetic compounds are studied by non-oriented Raman spectroscopy to further aid band assignments of the minerals of interest. Other characterisation techniques include IR spectroscopy, SEM and XRD. From the single crystal data, it was found that good separation between different symmetry species is observed for the minerals studied.
