Correspondence e-mail: [email protected] The common classi®cation of twinning into the four categories of twinning by merohedry (complete and exact overlap of the lattices of the twinned crystals), pseudomerohedry (complete but approximate overlap), reticular merohedry (partial but exact overlap) and reticular pseudomerohedry (partial and approximate overlap) is revised in terms of the complete (translational and point) lattice symmetry of the twin and of the individual. The new category of reticular polyholohedry is introduced for twins where the twin lattice has the same point symmetry but a different orientation of the individual lattice. It is shown that the degeneration to twin index 1 relates, in a parallel way, reticular merohedry to metric merohedry and reticular polyholohedry to syngonic # 2004 International Union of Crystallography merohedry.

ABSTRACT The crystal structure of cafetite, ideally Ca[Ti2O5](H2O), (monoclinic, P21/n, a = 4.9436(15), b = 12.109(4), c = 15.911(5) Å, b = 98.937(5)∞, V = 940.9(5) Å3, Z = 8) has been solved by direct methods and refined to R1 = 0.057 using X-ray diffraction data collected from a crystal pseudo-merohedrally twinned on (001). There are four symmetrically independent Ti cations; each is octahedrally coordi- nated by six O atoms. The coordination polyhedra around the Ti cations are strongly distorted with individual Ti-O bond lengths ranging from 1.743 to 2.223 Å (the average <Ti-O> bond length is 1.98 Å). Two symmetrically independent Ca cations are coordinated by six and eight anions for Ca1 and Ca2, respectively. The structure is based on [Ti2O5] sheets of TiO6 octahedra parallel to (001). The Ca atoms and H2O groups are located between the sheets and link them into a three-dimensional struc- ture. The structural formula of cafetite confirmed by electron microprobe analysis is Ca[Ti2O5](H2O), .

    Delindeite and lourenswalsite, two new titanosilicates from the Magnet Cove region, Arkansas DANIEL E. ApPLEMAN Department of Mineral Sciences, Smithsonian Institution, Washington, D.C. 20560, USA AND How ARD T. EVANS, JR., GORDON L. NORD, EDWARD J. DWORNIK AND CHARLES MIL TON U.S. Geological Survey, Reston, Virginia 22092, USA Abstract Delindeite and lourenswalsite are two new barium titanosilicate minerals found as microscopic crystals in miarolitic cavities in nepheline syenite in the Diamond Jo quarry, Hot Spring County, Arkansas. Delindeite is found as aggregates of flake-like crystallites in compact spherules, light pinkish grey in colour, with a resinous, pearly lustre. The flakes are biaxial positivewith average n ~ 1.813;the measured density is 3.3 g/cm3. Electron diffraction revealed a monoclinic unit cell in space group C2/m or subgroup, with a = 21.617(13), b = 6.816(5), c = 5.383(3) A, P = 94.03(5t(refined from X-ray powder data). The strongest X-ray lines are (hkl, dobs,!re'):(200,10.80,100); (311,3.54,24); (601,3.083,28); (601, 2.888, 31);(221, 2.806, 20); (910, 2.262,18). The crystals are submicroscopically twinned on (100) and also produce additional continuous diffraction streaks parallel to a*, which double the band c axes. The formula derived from electron and ion probe analyses (H20 by difference), as constrained by density and molar volume data, is approximately (Na,Kb.7(Ba,Ca)4(Ti,Fe,AI)6Sig026(OH)14' with Na> K, Ba »Ca, Ti» Fe,AI; Z = 1. Lourenswalsite occurs as very thin hexagonal plates in rosettes, silver grey to light brownish grey in colour.

    STRONG AND WEAK INTERLAYER INTERACTIONS OF TWO-DIMENSIONAL MATERIALS AND THEIR ASSEMBLIES Tyler William Farnsworth A dissertation submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Chemistry. Chapel Hill 2018 Approved by: Scott C. Warren James F. Cahoon Wei You Joanna M. Atkin Matthew K. Brennaman © 2018 Tyler William Farnsworth ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Tyler William Farnsworth: Strong and weak interlayer interactions of two-dimensional materials and their assemblies (Under the direction of Scott C. Warren) The ability to control the properties of a macroscopic material through systematic modification of its component parts is a central theme in materials science. This concept is exemplified by the assembly of quantum dots into 3D solids, but the application of similar design principles to other quantum-confined systems, namely 2D materials, remains largely unexplored. Here I demonstrate that solution-processed 2D semiconductors retain their quantum-confined properties even when assembled into electrically conductive, thick films. Structural investigations show how this behavior is caused by turbostratic disorder and interlayer adsorbates, which weaken interlayer interactions and allow access to a quantum- confined but electronically coupled state. I generalize these findings to use a variety of 2D building blocks to create electrically conductive 3D solids with virtually any band gap. I next introduce a strategy for discovering new 2D materials. Previous efforts to identify novel 2D materials were limited to van der Waals layered materials, but I demonstrate that layered crystals with strong interlayer interactions can be exfoliated into few-layer or monolayer materials.

  • Styles of Alteration of Ti Oxydes of the Kimberlite Groundmass: Implications on the Petrogenesis and Classification of Kimberlites and Similar Rocks
    11th International Kimberlite Conference Extended Abstract No. 11IKC-4629, 2017 Styles of alteration of Ti oxydes of the kimberlite groundmass: implications on the petrogenesis and classification of kimberlites and similar rocks Jingyao Xu1, Joan Carles Melgarejo2, Montgarri Castillo-Oliver3 1 Departament de Mineralogia, Petrologia i Geologia Aplicada, Facultat de Ciències de la Terra, Universitat de Barcelona, Barcelona, Spain, [email protected] 2 Departament de Mineralogia, Petrologia i Geologia Aplicada, Facultat de Ciències de la Terra, Universitat de Barcelona, Barcelona, Spain, [email protected] 3 ARC Centre of Excellence for Core to Crust Fluid Systems and GEMOC, Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences, Macquarie University, NSW, Australia, [email protected] Introduction Ti-minerals as ilmenite, spinels and perovskite are diamond indicator minerals and are important carriers of petrogenetic information. However, in many cases these minerals suffer complex alteration processes during the hydrothermal or supergene late stages of the kimberlite crystallization sequence. Altered kimberlites occur in the Bastar craton (central India) and the Eastern Dharwar craton (EDC, Southern India) in India. Kimberlite pipes and dikes (around 100 intrusions) from the EDC of southern India are distributed in three distinct fields: 1) the southern Wajrakarur kimberlite field; 2) the northern Narayanpet kimberlite field; and 3) the Raichur kimberlite field (Chalapathi Rao et al, 2013). This study compares the sequences of alteration in samples from two nearby pipes (SK-1 and SK-2, about 1100 m of distance) from Siddanpalli, Raichur Kimberlite field, EDC, southern India. The emplacement of these kimberlites is assumed to have taken place during the Mesoproterozoic, around 1,1 Ga (Chalapathi Rao et al., 2013).

Two types of perovskite occur in the studied Indian kimberlites. Type 1 perovskite is found in the groundmass, crystallized directly from the kimberlite magma, it is light rare-earth elements (LREE)-rich and Fe-poor and its DNNO calculated value is from −3.82 to −0.73. The second generation of perovskite (type 2 perovskite) is found replacing groundmass atoll spinel, it was formed from hydrothermal fluids, it is LREE-free and Fe-rich and has very high DNNO value (from 1.03 to 10.52). Type 1 groundmass perovskite may be either replaced by anatase or kassite along with aeschynite-(Ce). These differences in the alteration are related to different f (CO2) and f (H2O) conditions. Furthermore, primary perovskite may be strongly altered to secondary minerals, resulting in redistribution of rare-earth elements (REE) and, potentially, U, Pb and Th.
