To Volume 55, 1970 THE AMERICAN MINERALOGIST. VOL, 55. NOVEMtsER.DECEMBER. 1970 INDEX TO VOLUME 55, 1970 The index for this volume attempts to combine the advantages of the content of the traditional subject index, with the computer storage and retrieval possibilities of the KWIC index that was used for volumes 52-54. This index is processed and printed from the input to the Bibli.ography and Iniler oJ Geology,under a contract arrangement with the American Geological Institute. Thanks are due them for their excellent cooperation in this initial venture. The content and layout of this index, and in particular the choice of sub- ject headings, and subheadings, is still evolving. General cornments and specific suggestions from users will be welcomed, and should be addressed to the Editor oI The American Mineralogisl. 2147 AUTHOR INDEX TO VOLUME 55 7-8 1440 Adams. John W.

  • Rongibbsite, Pb2(Si4al)O11(OH), a New Zeolitic Aluminosilicate Mineral with an Interrupted Framework from Maricopa County, Arizona, U.S.A
    American Mineralogist, Volume 98, pages 236–241, 2013 Rongibbsite, Pb2(Si4Al)O11(OH), a new zeolitic aluminosilicate mineral with an interrupted framework from Maricopa County, Arizona, U.S.A. HEXIONG YANG,* ROBERT T. DOWNS, STANLEY H. EVANS, ROBERT A. JENKINS, AND ELIAS M. BLOCH Department of Geosciences, University of Arizona, 1040 East 4th Street, Tucson, Arizona 85721-0077, U.S.A. ABSTRACT A new zeolitic aluminosilicate mineral species, rongibbsite, ideally Pb2(Si4Al)O11(OH), has been found in a quartz vein in the Proterozoic gneiss of the Big Horn Mountains, Maricopa County, Arizona, U.S.A. The mineral is of secondary origin and is associated with wickenburgite, fornacite, mimetite, murdochite, and creaseyite. Rongibbsite crystals are bladed (elongated along the c axis, up to 0.70 × 0.20 × 0.05 mm), often in tufts. Dominant forms are {100}, {010}, {001}, and {101}. Twinning is common across (100). The mineral is colorless, transparent with white streak and vitreous luster. It is brittle and has a Mohs hardness of ∼5; cleavage is perfect on {100} and no parting was observed. 3 The calculated density is 4.43 g/cm . Optically, rongibbsite is biaxial (+), with nα = 1.690, nβ = 1.694, Z nγ = 1.700, c = 26°, 2Vmeas = 65(2)°. It is insoluble in water, acetone, or hydrochloric acid. Electron microprobe analysis yielded an empirical formula Pb2.05(Si3.89Al1.11)O11(OH). Rongibbsite is monoclinic, with space group I2/m and unit-cell parameters a = 7.8356(6), b = 13.913(1), c = 10.278(1) Å, β = 92.925(4)°, and V = 1119.0(2) Å3.

  • Mineral Ecology and Network Analysis of Chromium, Platinum
    MINERAL ECOLOGY AND NETWORK ANALYSIS OF CHROMIUM, PLATINUM, GOLD AND PALLADIUM A THESIS IN ENVIRONMENTAL AND URBAN GEOSCIENCES Presented to the Faculty of the University Of Missouri-Kansas City in partial fulfillment of The requirements for the degree MASTER OF SCIENCE By CHARLES ANDENGENIE MWAIPOPO B.S., University of Missouri-Kansas City, 2018 Kansas City, Missouri 2020 MINERAL ECOLOGY AND NETWORK ANALYSIS OF CHROMIUM, PLATINUM, GOLD AND PALLADIUM Charles Andengenie Mwaipopo, Candidate for the Master of Science Degree University of Missouri-Kansas City, 2020 ABSTRACT Data collected on the location of mineral species and related minerals from the field have many great uses from mineral exploration to mineral analysis. Such data is useful for further exploration and discovery of other minerals as well as exploring relationships that were not as obvious even to a trained mineralogist. Two fields of mineral analysis are examined in the paper, namely mineral ecology and mineral network analysis through mineral co-existence. Mineral ecology explores spatial distribution and diversity of the earth’s minerals. Mineral network analysis uses mathematical functions to visualize and graph mineral relationships. Several functions such as the finite Zipf-Mandelbrot (fZM), chord diagrams and mineral network diagrams, processed data and provided information on the estimation of minerals at different localities and interrelationships between chromium, platinum, gold and palladium-bearing minerals. The results obtained are important in highlighting several connections that could prove useful in mineral exploration. The main objective of the study is to provide any insight into the relationship among chromium, platinum, palladium and gold that could prove useful in mapping out potential locations of either mineral in the future.

Theodore U.S. Geological Survey Open-File Report 84-830 1984 [1985] Prepared in part under U.S. Geological Survey Contract 14-08-0001-17737 to the Arizona Bureau of Geology and Minerals Technology a_ division of The University of Arizona This report is preliminary and has not been reviewed for conformity with U.S. Geological Survey editorial standards and stratigraphic nomenclature. ' Present address: Jan C. Wilt, Consulting Geologist, Tucson, AZ 85746 !/ Present address: MAGMACHEM Exploration Inc., Phoenix, AZ 85044 I/ U.S. Geological Survey, Menlo Park, CA 94025 A listing and map showing molybdenum occurences in Arizona by_ Jan C. Wilt, Stanley B. Keith, and Ted G. Theodore INTRODUCTION This report is a summary of molybdenum occurrences throughout Arizona prepared in part by the Arizona Bureau of Geology and Mineral Technology under a contract issued by the U.S. Geological Survey. Each entry in the included table (table 1) is listed in a form abbreviated from that in a prior publication wherein the entire MRDS (Mineral Resource Data System) record was published (see Wilt and others, 1984). The molybdenum occurrences shown on the accompanying 1:1,000,000-scale map (plate 1) are grouped by mineral, and by the age of the rocks or deposits which the molybdenum mineral(s) are in or associated.

  • Embreyite, a New Mineral from Berezov, Siberia
    MINERALOGICAL MAGAZINE, SEPTEMBER 1972, VOL. 38, PP. 790-3 Embreyite, a new mineral from Berezov, Siberia S. A. WILLIAMS1 British Museum (Natural History), Cromwell Road, London S.W. 7 SUMMARY. Embreyite is a new mineral that has been found only in old specimens collected at Berezov, Siberia. The composition is Pb..9,(CrO.)..oo(PO.)1091.0.75H.O, or Pb5(CrO.).(PO.)..H.O based on both wet and electron-probe analyses. Z = I, Dme" 6.45, Deale 6.41. Crystals are monoclinic with a 9.755 A, b 5.636, c 7.135, f3 103°5'; the space group may be P21/m. No single crystals were found. y a = 2.20, f3 = = 2.36. Colour in various shades of orange with a yellow streak. H = 3t; no cleavages observed. Occurs with vauquelinite, crocoite, and phoenicochroite in the oxide zone assemblage from Berezov. EMBREYITE was first noted on a specimen loaned by J. Jago in 1963. His specimen contained just enough material for a powder spindle, however, so it was not until I obtained additional material that this description could be completed. A fine speci- men, rich in embreyite, was given me by Dr. Sainfeld at the Bureau des Recherches Geologiques et Minieres, and I recently had the opportunity to carefully examine all of the Beresov specimens at the British Museum (Natural History), where a con- siderable amount of embreyite turned up. There are at least two specimens at the B.R.G.M., twelve at the British Museum2 (Natural History), and the original Jago specimen. These specimens comprise an estimated 10 grams of embreyite, and doubt- less there are many other pieces in collections of Berezov material.
