  • Diagenesis in Prehistoric Caves: the Use of Minerals That Form in Situ to Assess the Completeness of the Archaeological Record
    Journal of Archaeological Science (2000) 27, 915–929 doi:10.1006/jasc.1999.0506, available online at http://www.idealibrary.com on Diagenesis in Prehistoric Caves: the Use of Minerals that Form In Situ to Assess the Completeness of the Archaeological Record Panagiotis Karkanas Ephoreia of Palaeoanthropology-Speleology, 34b Ardittou, Athens 11636, Greece Ofer Bar-Yosef Department of Anthropology, Peabody Museum, Harvard University, Cambridge, MA 02138, U.S.A. Paul Goldberg Department of Archaeology, Boston University, 675 Commonwealth Avenue, Boston, MA 02215, U.S.A. Steve Weiner Department of Structural Biology, Weizmann Institute of Science, Rehovot, Israel 76100 (Received 21 May 1999, revised manuscript accepted 29 September 1999) An interpretation of the archaeological record, in particular that of a prehistoric cave site, is complicated by the diversity of depositional and post-depositional processes that affect the material deposited. Here we propose to use the authigenic minerals that form in situ within the cave sediments to reconstruct the ancient chemical environments in the sediments. This can be done by experimentally determining the conditions under which each of the authigenic minerals are stable. Although this information is not available to date for minerals formed in a prehistoric cave, we present calculated stability field data for the relevant minerals. The results clearly demonstrate the feasibility of this approach. This information, particularly if based on measurements of real authigenic cave minerals, will facilitate an assessment of the completeness of the cave archaeological record. This is particularly important for determining whether or not the distributions of archaeologically important materials, such as bones, teeth, plant phytoliths, charcoal and ash, reflect their original burial distributions or were altered as a result of secondary diagenetic processes.

Minerals, the basis of overwhelming mass of solid matter in the universe, are direct subjects of investigation in mineralogy. Minerals, or mineral species, are generally solid crystalline substances. Their definition indicates that, they are: (1) naturally occurring; (2) belonging to the distinct structural type; (3) stable, varying merely in the relatively small limits of chemical composition. If a given mineral differs from other known species in its structure (2) and/or composition (3) then it can be considered as a new mineral species. According to the data of the Commission on New Minerals, Nomenclature and Classification (CNMNC) of the International Mineralogical Association (IMA) (http://nrmima.nrm.se/), there are currently about 5600 known mineral species. The number of minerals increases steadily year by year.

  • A Review of the Structural Architecture of Tellurium Oxycompounds
    Mineralogical Magazine, May 2016, Vol. 80(3), pp. 415–545 REVIEW OPEN ACCESS A review of the structural architecture of tellurium oxycompounds 1 2,* 3 A. G. CHRISTY ,S.J.MILLS AND A. R. KAMPF 1 Research School of Earth Sciences and Department of Applied Mathematics, Research School of Physics and Engineering, Australian National University, Canberra, ACT 2601, Australia 2 Geosciences, Museum Victoria, GPO Box 666, Melbourne, Victoria 3001, Australia 3 Mineral Sciences Department, Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County, 900 Exposition Boulevard, Los Angeles, CA 90007, USA [Received 24 November 2015; Accepted 23 February 2016; Associate Editor: Mark Welch] ABSTRACT Relative to its extremely low abundance in the Earth’s crust, tellurium is the most mineralogically diverse chemical element, with over 160 mineral species known that contain essential Te, many of them with unique crystal structures. We review the crystal structures of 703 tellurium oxysalts for which good refinements exist, including 55 that are known to occur as minerals. The dataset is restricted to compounds where oxygen is the only ligand that is strongly bound to Te, but most of the Periodic Table is represented in the compounds that are reviewed. The dataset contains 375 structures that contain only Te4+ cations and 302 with only Te6+, with 26 of the compounds containing Te in both valence states. Te6+ was almost exclusively in rather regular octahedral coordination by oxygen ligands, with only two instances each of 4- and 5-coordination. Conversely, the lone-pair cation Te4+ displayed irregular coordination, with a broad range of coordination numbers and bond distances.

  • Cesbronite, a New Copper Tellurite from Moctezuma, Sonora
    MINERALOGICAL MAGAZINE, SEPTEMBER 1974, VOL. 39, PP. 744-6 Cesbronite, a new copper tellurite from Moctezuma, Sonora SIDNEY A. WILLIAMS Phelps Dodge Corporation, Douglas, Arizona SUMMARY. Cesbronite occurs at the Bambollita mine, near Moctezuma, Sonora, with a variety of other tellurites. The colour is 'green beetle' (R.H.S. 135-B) with a pale streak. H 3; Dmeas 4"45:1:0'2. Crystals are orthorhombic 2 mmm with a 8'624 A, b I I '878, C5'872 (all :I:0'016 A); space group Pbcn. For Z = 2 the calculated density is 4'455 gfcm3. The strongest powder lines are 5'934 (100),3'490 (92), 4'889 (71), 2'358 (70), 2'379 (38),1'592 (34), 2'156 (28), and 1.698 (27). Electron-probe analysis gave: CuO 50'3 %, 50'3, 49'8, 49'4; TeO. 39'3 %. 39'2, 38,6, 38,6. Water determined gravimetrically II'O"la. This gives CU5(Te03).(OH)6.2H.O. Cesbronite is pleochroic with absorption y ~ f3 ?> a:. Optically positive with 2Vy calc. 72°; a: 1.880 11[100],f3 1'928 I![OOI],y 2'02911[010]. CESBRONITE was first collected by Peter Embrey and Pierre Bariand during a visit we made to the Bambollita (La Oriental) mine near Moctezuma, Sonora. The mineral is named in honour of Dr. Fabien Cesbron, French mineralogist. There are two thin veins exposed in this mine, and cesbronite occurs in only one. This vein is closer to the portal and is more severely oxidized than the other vein (where quetzalcoatlite occurs).

This revision is limited to those portions of this document impacted by the Johnson document. Executive Summary The Waste Treatment and Immobilization Plant (WTP) is working to develop a Standard High Solids Vessel Design (SHSVD) process vessel. To support testing of this new design, WTP engineering staff requested that a Newtonian simulant and a non-Newtonian simulant be developed that would represent the Most Adverse Design Conditions (in development)1 with respect to mixing performance as specified by WTP. The majority of the simulant requirements are specified in 24590-PTF-RPT-PE-16-001, Rev.
