    minerals Article Age and Origin of Silicocarbonate Pegmatites of the Adirondack Region Jeffrey Chiarenzelli 1,*, Marian Lupulescu 2, George Robinson 1, David Bailey 3 and Jared Singer 4 1 Department of Geology, St. Lawrence University, Canton, NY 13617, USA 2 New York State Museum, Research and Collections, Albany, NY 12230, USA 3 Geosciences Department, Hamilton College, Clinton, NY 13323, USA 4 Earth and Environmental Sciences, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Rensselaer, NY 12180, USA * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +1-315-229-5202 Received: 24 July 2019; Accepted: 19 August 2019; Published: 23 August 2019 Abstract: Silicocarbonate pegmatites from the southern Grenville Province have provided exceptionally large crystal specimens for more than a century. Their mineral parageneses include euhedral calc–silicate minerals such as amphibole, clinopyroxene, and scapolite within a calcite matrix. Crystals can reach a meter or more in long dimension. Minor and locally abundant phases reflect local bedrock compositions and include albite, apatite, perthitic microcline, phlogopite, zircon, tourmaline, titanite, danburite, uraninite, sulfides, and many other minerals. Across the Adirondack Region, individual exposures are of limited aerial extent (<10,000 m2), crosscut metasedimentary rocks, especially calc–silicate gneisses and marbles, are undeformed and are spatially and temporally associated with granitic pegmatites. Zircon U–Pb results include both Shawinigan (circa 1165 Ma) and Ottawan (circa 1050 Ma) intrusion ages, separated by the Carthage-Colton shear zone. Those of Shawinigan age (Lowlands) correspond with the timing of voluminous A-type granitic magmatism, whereas Ottawan ages (Highlands) are temporally related to orogenic collapse, voluminous leucogranite and granitic pegmatite intrusion, iron and garnet ore development, and pervasive localized hydrothermal alteration.

  • The Wittelsbach-Graff and Hope Diamonds: Not Cut from the Same Rough
    THE WITTELSBACH-GRAFF AND HOPE DIAMONDS: NOT CUT FROM THE SAME ROUGH Eloïse Gaillou, Wuyi Wang, Jeffrey E. Post, John M. King, James E. Butler, Alan T. Collins, and Thomas M. Moses Two historic blue diamonds, the Hope and the Wittelsbach-Graff, appeared together for the first time at the Smithsonian Institution in 2010. Both diamonds were apparently purchased in India in the 17th century and later belonged to European royalty. In addition to the parallels in their histo- ries, their comparable color and bright, long-lasting orange-red phosphorescence have led to speculation that these two diamonds might have come from the same piece of rough. Although the diamonds are similar spectroscopically, their dislocation patterns observed with the DiamondView differ in scale and texture, and they do not show the same internal strain features. The results indicate that the two diamonds did not originate from the same crystal, though they likely experienced similar geologic histories. he earliest records of the famous Hope and Adornment (Toison d’Or de la Parure de Couleur) in Wittelsbach-Graff diamonds (figure 1) show 1749, but was stolen in 1792 during the French T them in the possession of prominent Revolution.

The lead article in this issue examines the history, sources, and gemological characteristics of these diamonds, as well as their distinctive color appearance. Rela- tionships between their color, clarity, and other properties were derived from hundreds of samples—including such famous blue diamonds as the Hope and the Blue Heart (or Unzue Blue)—that were studied at the GIA Gem Trade Laboratory over the past several years. The diamonds shown here range from 0.69 to 2.03 ct. Photo © Harold & Erica Van Pelt––Photographers, Los Angeles, California.

    American Federation of Mineralogical Societies AFMS Approved Reference List of Lapidary Material Names “Gem List” August 1996 Updated January 2003 AFMS Pubications Committee B. Jay Bowman, Chair Internet version of Approved Lapidary Material Names. This document can only be downloaded at http://www.amfed.org/rules APPROVED NAMES FOR LAPIDARY LABELS Prepared by the American Federation Nomenclature Committee and approved by the American Federa- tion Uniform Rules Committee, this list is the authorized guide and authority for Lapidary Label Names for exhibitors and judges in all competition under AFMS Uniform Rules. All materials are listed alpha- betically with two columns on a page. The following criteria are to assist in the selection and judging of material names on exhibit labels. 1. The name of any listed material (except tigereye), which has been cut to show a single chatoyant ray, may be preceded by “CAT’S-EYE”; the name of any material which has been cut to show asterism (two or more crossed rays) may be preceded by “STAR”, i.e.: CATS-EYE DIOPSIDE, CAT’S-EYE QUARTZ, STAR BERYL, STAR GARNET, etc. 2. This list is not all-inclusive as to the names of Lapidary materials which may at some time be exhibited. If a mineral or rock not included in this list is exhibited, the recognized mineralogical or petrological name must be used. The names of valid minerals and valid mineral varieties listed in the latest edition of the Glossary of Mineral Species by Michael Fleisher, or any other authorized reference, will be acceptable as Lapidary names. Varieties need only have variety name listed and not the root species.

    New Mexico Geological Society Downloaded from: http://nmgs.nmt.edu/publications/guidebooks/61 Gemstone deposits of the Four Corners region, USA Robert W. Eveleth and Virgil W. Lueth, 2010, pp. 221-229 in: Geology of the Four Corners Country, Fassett, James E.; Zeigler, Kate E.; Lueth, Virgil W., [eds.], New Mexico Geological Society 61st Annual Fall Field Conference Guidebook, 246 p. This is one of many related papers that were included in the 2010 NMGS Fall Field Conference Guidebook. Annual NMGS Fall Field Conference Guidebooks Every fall since 1950, the New Mexico Geological Society (NMGS) has held an annual Fall Field Conference that explores some region of New Mexico (or surrounding states). Always well attended, these conferences provide a guidebook to participants. Besides detailed road logs, the guidebooks contain many well written, edited, and peer-reviewed geoscience papers. These books have set the national standard for geologic guidebooks and are an essential geologic reference for anyone working in or around New Mexico. Free Downloads NMGS has decided to make peer-reviewed papers from our Fall Field Conference guidebooks available for free download. Non-members will have access to guidebook papers two years after publication. Members have access to all papers. This is in keeping with our mission of promoting interest, research, and cooperation regarding geology in New Mexico. However, guidebook sales represent a significant proportion of our operating budget. Therefore, only research papers are available for download. Road logs, mini-papers, maps, stratigraphic charts, and other selected content are available only in the printed guidebooks. Copyright Information Publications of the New Mexico Geological Society, printed and electronic, are protected by the copyright laws of the United States.
