Michael (2000) Basic Crystallography - Needed for EBSD and MTEX • Understanding of planes, plane normals, direcons and zone axis, Miller or Bravais-Miller indices for different crystal symmetries for describing diffracon pa7erns the posi5on of atoms in a crystal • The posi3on of atoms in crystal coordinates, their local point symmetry, their crystal symmetry, their diffrac3on Laüe symmetry. Where to find informaon to describe a mineral structure not present in your EBSD system and how to enter it. • Once in your EBSD base calculate d-spacing and the diffracted intensity of each plane Plan • Direct space – the real world • Fraconal coordinates • Symmetry opera5ons • Lace planes and direcons • Point groups • Relaonship between direct and reciprocal laces • Crystallographic calculaons (structure factor, angles, d-space, reciprocal lace, metric tensor and orthogonal basis) The direct space • The posions of atoms in crystals is the most fundamental informaon we need. • Atoms in crystals physically exist in real or direct space where the atoms posi3ons are described relave to an origin, typically at a corner, in 3-D volume called the “unit cell”. • The 3 axes of the unit cell x, y and z from a right- handed set with angles alpha (α), beta (β) and gamma(γ) between y & z, x & z and x & y respecvely. The lace parameters, a, b, c describe the dimensions of the unit cell along x, y and z. Right hand rule Unit Cell Frac3onal Coordinates Axes x,y,z are right-handed Symmetry operaons • Iden3ty, unit or null • Inversion or center of symmetry • Rotaon • Reflec3on or mirror • Improper rotaon or rotaon-inversion Inversion symmetry is implemented in MTEX in specimen coordinates (i.e. pole figures) as an option called ‘antipodal’ Monoclinic • A mirror normal to the b-axis results from the combinaon of 2-fold b-axis and inversion. {2[010]} * {-1} = {m[010]} Orthorhombic • A perpendicular 2-fold c-axis results from the combinaon of 2-fold a-axis 2-fold b-axis . {2[100]} * {2[010]} = {2[001]} Four types of symmetry operaon Translation – need for Space Groups 3D and Stereogram for Cubic symmetry A direcon [UVW] : Ua + Vb + Wc Axes x,y,z (a,b,c) are not always orthogonal as α,β,γ may not be equal 90° Typical lace direc3ons Lace – planes and direc3ons William Hallowes Miller (1801–1880). English crystallographer who published a “Treatise on Crystallography” in 1839, using crystallographic reference axes that were parallel to the crystal edges and using reciprocal indices. Direc3ons and Symmetry • [uvw] is a direc3on e.g. [111] or [001] • <uvw> is a family of direc3ons related by symmetry e.g. <111> with symmetry equivalent direc3ons [111, [1-11], [-1-11], [1-11], [-1-1-1], [1-1-1], [-1-1-1] ,[1-1-1] depending of the crystal symmetry, for cubic there are 8. • ½ [uvw] or ½ <uvw> are direc3ons associated with a translaon in this direc3on of ½, ¼,etc. of the lace spacing (e.g. Burgers vector of dislocaon) Planes and symmetry • (hkl) is plane or general form e.g. (111). • {hkl} is family of planes or forms related by symmetry e.g. {hkl} ; (110),(1-10),(-110), (-110), members of the family are specified by the crystal symmetry, for cubic there are 4. • {0kl} is a special family of planes or forms e.g. {0kl} in orthorhombic ; (011),(012),(013) … MTEX and symmetry equivalent direc3ons [uvw] and planes (hkl) A plane normal m = Miller(1,0,1,cs,’hkl’) m = symmetrise(m) generate all Miller indices symmetrically equivalent to m A direcon n = Miller(0,1,0,cs,’uvw’) n = symmetrise(n) generate all Miller indices symmetrically equivalent to n cs = crystal symmetry = ‘mmm’ e.g. ‘mmm’ = orthorhombic Laue class symmetry MTEX – Three reference frames associated with crystals Direct lattice a,b,c Reciprocal Lattice a*,b*,c* Cartesian frame x,y,z For directions For pole to planes For Euler angles ϕ1Φ ϕ2 u = ua + vb + wc h = ha* + kb* + lc* and Tensors r = ix + jy +kz MTEX – symmetrise : (hkl) %% Forsterite (101) plane % define crystal symmetry as orthorhombic CS = crystalSymmetry('mmm', [4.756 10.207 5.98], 'mineral', 'Forsterite', 'color', 'dark green') % plane(101) m = Miller(1,0,1,CS,'Forsterite','hkl') % plot plot(m,'labeled') % save file saveFigure('/MatLab_Programs/Forsterite_plane_101.pdf') %% Symmetry equivalent planes to (101) m_equivalent = symmetrise(m) % plot plot(m_equivalent,'labeled') % save file saveFigure('/MatLab_Programs/Forsterite_planes_101_equivalents.pdf') ! u p p er lower u p p er lower ( 101) ( 101) ( 10 1)¯ ( 1¯ 01) ( 1¯ 01¯ ) Single hkl in upper hemisphere With symmetrise command Four hkls 2 in upper and 2 lower hemisphere MTEX – symmetrise : [uvtw] %% Ice Ih direction a1 [2-1-10] % crystal symmetry CS = crystalSymmetry('6/mmm', [4.5181 4.5181 7.3560],...

  • Metamorphism of Sedimentary Manganese Deposits
    Acta Mineralogica-Petrographica, Szeged, XX/2, 325—336, 1972. METAMORPHISM OF SEDIMENTARY MANGANESE DEPOSITS SUPRIYA ROY ABSTRACT: Metamorphosed sedimentary deposits of manganese occur extensively in India, Brazil, U. S. A., Australia, New Zealand, U. S. S. R., West and South West Africa, Madagascar and Japan. Different mineral-assemblages have been recorded from these deposits which may be classi- fied into oxide, carbonate, silicate and silicate-carbonate formations. The oxide formations are represented by lower oxides (braunite, bixbyite, hollandite, hausmannite, jacobsite, vredenburgite •etc.), the carbonate formations by rhodochrosite, kutnahorite, manganoan calcite etc., the silicate formations by spessartite, rhodonite, manganiferous amphiboles and pyroxenes, manganophyllite, piedmontite etc. and the silicate-carbonate formations by rhodochrosite, rhodonite, tephroite, spessartite etc. Pétrographie and phase-equilibia data indicate that the original bulk composition in the sediments, the reactions during metamorphism (contact and regional and the variations and effect of 02, C02, etc. with rise of temperature, control the mineralogy of the metamorphosed manga- nese formations. The general trend of formation and transformation of mineral phases in oxide, carbonate, silicate and silicate-carbonate formations during regional and contact metamorphism has, thus, been established. Sedimentary manganese formations, later modified by regional or contact metamorphism, have been reported from different parts of the world. The most important among such deposits occur in India, Brazil, U.S.A., U.S.S.R., Ghana, South and South West Africa, Madagascar, Australia, New Zealand, Great Britain, Japan etc. An attempt will be made to summarize the pertinent data on these metamorphosed sedimentary formations so as to establish the role of original bulk composition of the sediments, transformation and reaction of phases at ele- vated temperature and varying oxygen and carbon dioxide fugacities in determin- ing the mineral assemblages in these deposits.

  • Weathering of Silicate Minerals in Soils and Watersheds: Parameterization of the Weathering Kinetics Module in the PROFILE and Forsafe Models
    Biogeosciences Discuss., https://doi.org/10.5194/bg-2019-38 Manuscript under review for journal Biogeosciences Discussion started: 18 February 2019 c Author(s) 2019. CC BY 4.0 License. Reviews and synthesis: Weathering of silicate minerals in soils and watersheds: Parameterization of the weathering kinetics module in the PROFILE and ForSAFE models Harald Ulrik Sverdrup1*, Eric Oelkers5, Martin Erlandsson Lampa2, Salim Belyazid3, Daniel Kurz4, Cecilia Akselsson6, 1-Industrial Engineering, University of Iceland, Reykjavik, Iceland, 2-Institute of Hydrology, University of Uppsala, Uppsala, Sweden, 3-Physical Geography, Stockholm University, Stockholm, Sweden, 4-EKG Geoscience, Bern, Switzerland, 5-Earth Sciences, University College London, Gower Street, WC1E 6BT, London, UK, 6-Earth Sciences, University of Lund, Lund, Sweden. *corresponding author ([email protected]) Abstract The PROFILE model, now incorporated in the ForSAFE model can accurately reproduce the chemical and mineralogical evolution of the soil unsaturated zone. However, in deeper soil layers and in groundwater systems, it appears to overestimate weathering rates. This overestimation has been corrected by improving the kinetic expression describing mineral dissolution by adding or upgrading ‘breaking functions’. The base cation and aluminium brakes have been strengthened, and an additional silicate brake has been developed, improving the ability to describe mineral-water reactions in deeper soils. These brakes are developed from a molecular-level model of the dissolution mechanisms. Equations, parameters and constants describing mineral dissolution kinetics have now been obtained for 102 different minerals from 12 major structural groups, comprising all types of minerals encountered in most soils. The PROFILE and ForSAFE weathering sub-model was extended to cover two-dimensional catchments, both in the vertical and the horizontal direction, including the hydrology.

Nayakb aRegional Research Laboratory (CSIR), Bhubaneswar 751 013, India bNational Metallurgical Laboratory (CSIR), Jamshedpur 831 007, India Received 11 April 2003; revised 6 February 2004; accepted 21 July 2004 Abstract Metamorphosed Mn carbonate–silicate rocks with or without oxides (assemblage I) and Mn silicate–oxide rocks with minor Mn carbonate (assemblage II) occur as conformable lenses within metapelites and metacherts of the Precambrian Gangpur Group, India. The petrology of the carbonate minerals: rhodochrosite, kutnahorite, and calcite that occur in these two assemblages is reported. Early stabilisation of spessartine, aegirine, quartz, and carbonates (in a wide solid solution range) was followed by pyroxmangite, tephroite, rhodonite through decarbonation reactions. Subsequently, jacobsite, hematite, braunite, hollandite and hausmannite have formed by decarbonation–oxidation processes during prograde metamorphism. Textural characteristics and chemical composition of constituent phases suggest that the mineral assemblages reflect a complex ! w relationship between protolithic composition, variation of XCO2 ( 0.2 to 0.3) and oxygen fugacity. A variation of XCO2 and fO2 would imply internal buffering of pore fluids through mineral reactions that produced diverse assemblages in the carbonate bearing manganiferous rocks. A minor change in temperature (from around 400 to 450 8C) does not appear to have had any major influence on the formation of different mineral associations. q 2004 Elsevier Ltd.

  • TEPHROITE from FRANKLIN, NEW JERSEY* Connbrrus S. Hunrsur
    THE AMERICAN MINERALOGIST, VOL 46, MAY_JUNE, 1961 TEPHROITE FROM FRANKLIN, NEW JERSEY* ConNBrrus S. Hunrsur, Jn., Departmentof Mineralogy, Harvard, Uniaersity. Assrnlcr A study of tephroite specimens from Franklin and Sterling Hill, New Jersey showed in all of them the presence of thin sheets of willemite believed to be a product of exsolution. .fhese sheets are oriented parallel to the {100} and [010] planes of tephroite with the o and r axes of tephroite and willemite parallel. It is believed that Iittle zinc remains in the tephroite structure and that much of it reported in chemical analyses has been con- tributed by intergrown u'illemite. This conclusion is supported by experiments syn- thesizing tephroite. The indices of refraction and d spacing of {130} vary as would be expected with changes in amounts of MgO, FeO and CaO. INrnooucrroN 'fephroite, Mn2SiO4,a member of the olivine group, was describedas a new mineral from SterlingHill by Breithaupt in 1823.A chemicalanal- ysis of the original material was published by Brush (1864) together with severaladditional chemical analysesof tephroite made by others. These analysesreport ZnO in varying amounts which Brush attributed to invariably associatedzincite. Palache (1937) did not agree with Brush and stated " . that the molecularratios in someanalyses more nearly satisfy the orthosilicateformula when zinc is regardedas essen- tially a part of the mineral rather than as a constituent of mechanical inclusions." The present study was undertaken for the purpose of in- vestigatingthe variations in the propertiesof tephroite with changesin chemical composition, particularly the effect of zinc. Relationships were not expectedto be simplefor analysesshow, in addition to ZnO, variable amounts of MgO, FeO, and CaO.
