Iii. the Serpentine-Kaolin Group
Clay Minerals (1990) 25, 93-98 CRYSTALLOCHEMICAL CLASSIFICATIONS OF PHYLLOSILICATES BASED ON THE UNIFIED SYSTEM OF PROJECTION OF CHEMICAL COMPOSITION: III. THE SERPENTINE-KAOLIN GROUP A. WIEWIORA Institute ofGeological Sciences, Polish Academy of Sciences, AI. Zwirki i Wigury 93, 02-089 Warsaw, Poland (Received 15 February 1989,. revised 20 July 1989) ABSTRACT: A unified system of projection of chemical composition, prepared initially for micas and chlorites, has been applied to minerals of the serpentine-kaolinite group. It has been shown that the chemical composition in the projection field is controlled by the formula, the unit of which is: (R~+R;+oJ(Si(2_ xIAI,jOs(OH)4, where u + y + z = 3, Z =Y - x. Using projection fields for different chemical systems it has been shown that among the most important end members are kaolinite minerals, true serpentines, berthierine, brindleyite, amesite, cronstedtite, greenalite, nepouite and their analogues having different substitutions in the octahedral sheets. CRYSTALLOCHEMICAL CLASSIFICAnON As shown for micas (Part I) and chlorites (Part II), the chemical composition and its relation to structure may be represented using the vector concept. If significant chemical composition, as given by the crystallochemical formula, is assigned to a definite point located at the intersections of isolines, this concept becomes also a useful basis for crystallochemical classification of minerals characterized by the 7 A repeat unit, i.e. the serpentine-kaolin group. As for micas and chlorites, the projection field contains isolines: IRz+ - sum of divalent cations, Mg, Fe2+, Ni and Mn per three octahedral positions; IR3+ - sum of trivalent cations, AI, Fe3+ and Cr per three octahedral positions; 10 - number of vacant sites per three octahedral positions; ISi(4_ x) - number of Si per two tetrahedral positions, where x is the number of trivalent cations substituting for Si.
