The process of oxidation of Fe2+ to Fe3+ ions started at about 350 °C for the sample richer in Al and at 300 °C for the sample somewhat lower Al-content. Mössbauer results show that this process may be associated with dehydroxylation or even initiate it. The first stage of dehydroxylation takes place at a temperature > 350 °C when the adjacent OH groups are replaced with a single residual oxygen atom. Up to ~500 °C, Fe ions do not migrate from cis- octahedra to trans-octahedra sites, but the coordination number of polyhedra changes from six to five. -

Factors Responsible for Crystal Chemical Variations in The

AB STR A CT Several finely dispersed low-temperature dioctahedral micas and micaceous minerals that form solid solutions from (Mg,Fe)-free illite to aluminoceladonite via Mg-rich illite, and from Fe3+-rich glauconite to celadonite have been studied by X-ray diffraction and chemical analysis. The samples have 1M and 1Md structures. The transitions from illite to aluminoceladonite and from glauconite to celadonite are accompanied by a consistent decrease in the mica structural-unit thickness (2:1 layer + interlayer) or csinβ. In the first sample series csinβ decreases from 10.024 to 9.898 Å, and in the second from 10.002 to 9.961 Å. To reveal the basic factors responsible for these regularities, struc- tural modeling was carried out to deduce atomic coordinates for 1M dioctahedral mica based on the unit-cell parameters and cation composition. For each sample series, the relationships among csinβ, maximum and mean thicknesses of octahedral and tetrahedral sheets and of the 2:1 layer, interlayer distance, and variations of the tetrahedral rotation angle, α, and the degree of basal surface corruga- tion, ∆Z, have been analyzed in detail. -
Phyllosilicates in the Sediment-Forming Processes: Weathering, Erosion, Transportation, and Deposition
Acta Geodyn. Geomater., Vol. 6, No. 1 (153), 13–43, 2009 PHYLLOSILICATES IN THE SEDIMENT-FORMING PROCESSES: WEATHERING, EROSION, TRANSPORTATION, AND DEPOSITION Jiří KONTA Faculty of Sciences, Charles University, Albertov 6, 128 43 Prague 2 Home address: Korunní 127, 130 00 Prague 3, Czech Republic *Corresponding author‘s e-mail: [email protected] (Received October 2008, accepted January 2009) ABSTRACT Phyllosilicates are classified into the following groups: 1 - Neutral 1:1 structures: the kaolinite and serpentine group. 2 - Neutral 2:1 structures: the pyrophyllite and talc group. 3 - High-charge 2:1 structures, non-expansible in polar liquids: illite and the dioctahedral and trioctahedral micas, also brittle micas. 4 - Low- to medium-charge 2:1 structures, expansible phyllosilicates in polar liquids: smectites and vermiculites. 5 - Neutral 2:1:1 structures: chlorites. 6 - Neutral to weak-charge ribbon structures, so-called pseudophyllosilicates or hormites: palygorskite and sepiolite (fibrous crystalline clay minerals). 7 - Amorphous clay minerals. Order-disorder states, polymorphism, polytypism, and interstratifications of phyllosilicates are influenced by several factors: 1) a chemical micromilieu acting during the crystallization in any environment, including the space of clay pseudomorphs after original rock-forming silicates or volcanic glasses; 2) the accepted thermal energy; 3) the permeability. The composition and properties of parent rocks and minerals in the weathering crusts, the elevation, and topography of source areas and climatic conditions control the intensity of weathering, erosion, and the resulting assemblage of phyllosilicates to be transported after erosion. The enormously high accumulation of phyllosilicates in the sedimentary lithosphere is primarily conditioned by their high up to extremely high chemical stability in water-rich environments (expressed by index of corrosion, IKO). -

Crystal-Structure Refinement of a Zn-Rich Kupletskite from Mont Saint-Hilaire, Quebec, with Contributions to the Geochemistry of Zinc in Peralkaline Environments

Zn-rich kupletskite is triclinic, P1¯, a = 5.3765(4), b = 11.8893(11), c = 11.6997(10), a = 113.070(3), b = 94.775(2), g = 103.089(3), R1= 0.0570 for 3757 observed reflections with Fo >4s(Fo). From the single-crystal X-ray diffraction refinement, it is clear that Zn2+ shows a preference for the smaller, trans M(4) site (69%), yet is distributed amongst all three octahedral sites coordinated by 4 O2À and 2 OHÀ [M(2) 58% and M(3) 60%]. Of note is the lack of Zn in M(1), the larger and least-distorted of the four crystallographic sites, with an asymmetric anionic arrangement of 5 O2À and 1 OHÀ. -
Rubies and Sapphires from Snezhnoe, Tajikistan
FEATURE ARTICLES RUBIES AND SAPPHIRES FROM SNEZHNOE , T AJIKISTAN Elena S. Sorokina, Andrey K. Litvinenko, Wolfgang Hofmeister, Tobias Häger, Dorrit E. Jacob, and Zamoniddin Z. Nasriddinov Discovered during the late 1970s, the Snezhnoe ruby and sapphire deposit in Tajikistan was active until the collapse of the former Soviet Union in the early 1990s and the outbreak of regional conflicts. This marble-hosted occurrence has seen renewed interest, as it is a large and potentially productive deposit that has not been sufficiently studied. Testing of samples identified solid inclusions of margarite enriched with Na and Li (calcic ephesite or soda margarite). These are believed to be previously unreported for gem corundum. Allanite, muscovite, and fuchsite (chromium-bearing muscovite) were identified for the first time in ruby and sapphire from Snezhnoe. These and other inclusions such as zircon, rutile, K- feldspar, and Ca-Na-plagioclase could serve to distinguish them from stones mined elsewhere. Con - centrations of trace elements were typical for ruby and sapphire of the same formation type. The highest Cr concentrations were observed within the bright red marble-hosted rubies, and these values were very similar to those of the famous Burmese rubies from Mogok. orundum— -Al O —is a common, though net, scapolite, lazurite, and variscite (Litvinenko α 2 3 minor, component of many metamorphic and Barnov, 2010).
