  • Ajoite: New Data
    American Mineralogist, Volume 66, pages 201-203, 1981 Ajoite: new data GEORGE Y. CHAO Department of Geology, Carleton University Ottawa, Ontario Kl S 5B6, Canada Abstract New data show that ajoite is triclinic, PI or pI, a ==13.637, b ==14.507, c ==13.620A, a == 107.16, f3 = 105.45, y = 110.57°; Z ==3. The mineral is biaxial positive, 2V ==80°, a ==1.550, f3 = 1.583, y = 1.641 (in Na light); pleochroic: X = very light bluish green, Y -- Z ==brilliant bluish green. {010} cleavage is perfect. The orientation of the principal vibration directions is defined by the spherical coordinates X(26.5°, 80°), Y(118°, 79°), Z(-104.5°, 15°). The ex- tinction angle c: Z' on (0 I0) is 150. Electron microprobe and chemical analyses gave Si02 41.2, Al203 3.81, CuO 42.2, MnO 0.02, FeO 0.11, CaO 0.04, Na20 0.84, K20 2.50, H20 (TGA to 1000°C) 8.35, sum 99.07 wt.%. The analysis corresponds to (Ko.70NaO.36Cao.Ol)(CUt,.97 Feo.o2)Alo.98Si9.oo024(OH)6'3.09H20 or ideally, (K,Na)Cu7AISi9024(OH)6' 3H20. TGA showed a two-stage dehydration; 50% of the total water was released between 70° and 425°C and the rest between 4250 and 800°C. Half of the water is zeolitic in nature.

Hlava "The study of the natural sciences ought to expand the mind and enlarge the ability to grasp intellectual problems." Source?? "Mineral collecting can lead the interested and inquisitive person into the broader fields of geology and chemistry. This progression should be the proper outcome. Collecting for its own sake adds nothing to a person's understanding of the world about him. Learning to recognize minerals is only a beginning. The real satisfaction in mineralogy is in gaining knowledge of the ways in which minerals are formed in the earth, of the chemistry of the minerals and of the ways atoms are packed together to form crystals. Only by grouping minerals into definite categories is is possible to study, describe, and discuss them in a systematic and intelligent manner." Rock and Minerals, 1869, p. 260.

The structure [trigonal, space group P31c, a = 14.519(3), c = 21.062(6) Å, V = 3844.9(14) Å3] was solved by direct methods and partially refi ned to ≥ σ R1 = 0.085 (wR2 = 0.238) on the basis of 2243 unique observed refl ections (|Fo| 4 F). Shafranovskite is a 2:1 hydrous phyllosilicate. Sheets of Mn and Na octahedra (O sheets) are sandwiched between two silicate tetrahedral sheets (T1 and T2).

  • Design Rules for Discovering 2D Materials from 3D Crystals
    Design Rules for Discovering 2D Materials from 3D Crystals by Eleanor Lyons Brightbill Collaborators: Tyler W. Farnsworth, Adam H. Woomer, Patrick C. O'Brien, Kaci L. Kuntz Senior Honors Thesis Chemistry University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill April 7th, 2016 Approved: ___________________________ Dr Scott Warren, Thesis Advisor Dr Wei You, Reader Dr. Todd Austell, Reader Abstract Two-dimensional (2D) materials are championed as potential components for novel technologies due to the extreme change in properties that often accompanies a transition from the bulk to a quantum-confined state. While the incredible properties of existing 2D materials have been investigated for numerous applications, the current library of stable 2D materials is limited to a relatively small number of material systems, and attempts to identify novel 2D materials have found only a small subset of potential 2D material precursors. Here I present a rigorous, yet simple, set of criteria to identify 3D crystals that may be exfoliated into stable 2D sheets and apply these criteria to a database of naturally occurring layered minerals. These design rules harness two fundamental properties of crystals—Mohs hardness and melting point—to enable a rapid and effective approach to identify candidates for exfoliation. It is shown that, in layered systems, Mohs hardness is a predictor of inter-layer (out-of-plane) bond strength while melting point is a measure of intra-layer (in-plane) bond strength. This concept is demonstrated by using liquid exfoliation to produce novel 2D materials from layered minerals that have a Mohs hardness less than 3, with relative success of exfoliation (such as yield and flake size) dependent on melting point.

  • A Specific Gravity Index for Minerats
    A SPECIFICGRAVITY INDEX FOR MINERATS c. A. MURSKyI ern R. M. THOMPSON, Un'fuersityof Bri.ti,sh Col,umb,in,Voncouver, Canad,a This work was undertaken in order to provide a practical, and as far as possible,a complete list of specific gravities of minerals. An accurate speciflc cravity determination can usually be made quickly and this information when combined with other physical properties commonly leads to rapid mineral identification. Early complete but now outdated specific gravity lists are those of Miers given in his mineralogy textbook (1902),and Spencer(M,i,n. Mag.,2!, pp. 382-865,I}ZZ). A more recent list by Hurlbut (Dana's Manuatr of M,i,neral,ogy,LgE2) is incomplete and others are limited to rock forming minerals,Trdger (Tabel,l,enntr-optischen Best'i,mmungd,er geste,i,nsb.ildend,en M,ineral,e, 1952) and Morey (Encycto- ped,iaof Cherni,cal,Technol,ogy, Vol. 12, 19b4). In his mineral identification tables, smith (rd,entifi,cati,onand. qual,itatioe cherai,cal,anal,ys'i,s of mineral,s,second edition, New york, 19bB) groups minerals on the basis of specificgravity but in each of the twelve groups the minerals are listed in order of decreasinghardness. The present work should not be regarded as an index of all known minerals as the specificgravities of many minerals are unknown or known only approximately and are omitted from the current list. The list, in order of increasing specific gravity, includes all minerals without regard to other physical properties or to chemical composition. The designation I or II after the name indicates that the mineral falls in the classesof minerals describedin Dana Systemof M'ineralogyEdition 7, volume I (Native elements, sulphides, oxides, etc.) or II (Halides, carbonates, etc.) (L944 and 1951).

In this work, we have determined or evaluated thermodynamic properties of synthetic Sb2O5, MgSb2O6 (analogue of the mineral byströmite), Mg[Sb(OH)6]2 · 6H2O (brandholzite), and natural chapman- ite [(Fe1:88Al0:12)Sb(Si2O5)O3(OH)]. Enthalpies of reactions, including formation enthalpies, were evaluated using reference compounds Sb, Sb2O3, Sb2O5, and other phases, with high-temperature oxide melt solution calorimetry in lead borate and sodium molybdate solvents. Heat capacity and entropy were determined by relax- o −1 o −1 −1 ation and differential scanning calorimetry. The best set of 1f H (kJ mol ) and S (J mol K ) is byströmite −1733:0±3:6, 139:3±1:0; brandholzite −5243:1±3:6, 571:0±4:0; and chapmanite −3164:9±4:7, 305:1±2:1. o −1 The data for chapmanite give 1f G of −2973:6 ± 4:7 kJ mol and logK D −17:10 for the dissolution reac- C C ! 3C C 3C C 0 C 0 C tion (Fe1:88Al0:12)Sb(Si2O5)O3(OH) 6H 1.88Fe 0.12Al 2SiO2 Sb(OH)3 2H2O.
