  • Mineral of the Month Club January 2016

    Mineral of the Month Club January 2016

    Mineral of the Month Club January 2016 HALITE This month our featured mineral is halite, or common salt, from Searles Lake, California. Our write-up explains halite’s mineralogy and many uses, and how its high solubility accounts for its occurrence as an evaporite mineral and its distinctive taste. In the special section of our write-up we visit a European salt mine that is a world-class cultural and heritage site. OVERVIEW PHYSICAL PROPERTIES Chemistry: NaCl Sodium Chloride, often containing some potassium Class: Halides Group: Halite Crystal System: Isometric (Cubic) Crystal Habits: Cubic, rarely octahedral; usually occurs as masses of interlocking cubic crystals with corners sometimes truncated into small, octahedral faces; skeletal forms and receded hopper-type faces are common. Also occurs in massive, fibrous, granular, compact, stalactitic, and incrustation forms. Color: Most often light gray, colorless or white; also pale shades of yellow, red, pink, blue, and purple; blue and purple hues are sometimes intense. Luster: Vitreous Transparency: Transparent to translucent Streak: White Cleavage: Perfect in three directions Fracture/Tenacity: Conchoidal; brittle. Hardness: 2.0 Specific Gravity: 2.17 Luminescence: Often fluorescent Refractive Index: 1.544 Distinctive Features and Tests: Best field indicators are distinctive “table-salt” taste, cubic crystal form, perfect three-dimensional cleavage, and occurrence in evaporite- type deposits. Halite can be confused with sylvite [potassium chloride, KCl], which is similar in crystal form, but has a more astringent taste. Dana Classification Number: 9.1.1.1 NAME: The word “halite,” pronounced HAY-lite (rhymes with “daylight”), is derived from the Greek hals, meaning “salt,” and “lithos,” or stone.

Allin A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Masters in Geoscience: Geology Option Montana Technological University 2019 ii Abstract Experiments were conducted to determine the relative rates of reduction of aqueous sulfate and aqueous arsenite (As(OH)3,aq) using foils of copper, nickel, or cobalt as the reductant, at temperatures of 150ºC to 300ºC. At the highest temperature of 300°C, very limited sulfate reduction was observed with cobalt foil, but sulfate was reduced to sulfide by copper foil (precipitation of Cu2S (chalcocite)) and partly reduced by nickel foil (precipitation of NiS2 (vaesite) + NiSO4·xH2O). In the 300ºC arsenite reduction experiments, Cu3As (domeykite), Ni5As2, or CoAs (langisite) formed. In experiments where both sulfate and arsenite were present, some produced minerals were sulfarsenides, which contained both sulfide and arsenide, i.e. cobaltite (CoAsS). These experiments also produced large (~10 µm along longest axis) euhedral crystals of metal-sulfide that were either imbedded or grown upon a matrix of fine-grained metal-arsenides, or, in the case of cobalt, metal-sulfarsenide. Some experimental results did not show clear mineral formation, but instead demonstrated metal-arsenic alloying at the foil edges.

  • Cavansite, a Calcium and Vanadium Silicate of Formula Ca(VO)(Si4o1o

    Cavansite, a Calcium and Vanadium Silicate of Formula Ca(VO)(Si4o1o

    .. ,., Cavansite, a calcium and vanadium silicate of formula Ca(VO)(Si4O1o).4H.P, occurs as sky-blue to greenish-blue radiating prismatic rosettes up to~mm in size associated with its dimorph, pentagonite, in a roadcut near Lake Owyhee State Park in Malheur County, Oregon. Discovery of these two minerals is attributed to Mr. and Mrs. Leslie Perrigo of Fruitland, Idaho, (at this locality in 1961), and to Dr. John Cowles at the Goble locality in 1963 (see below). Associated with the cavansite and pentagonite are abundant colorless analcime, stilbite, chabazite, thomsonite and heulandite, as well as colorless to pale yellow calcite, and rare green or colorless apophyllite. This occurence and a similar emplacement (of cavansite only) near Goble, Columbia County, Oregon (co-type localities), represent the only known deposits of these two minerals in the United States. As determined by X-ray fluorescense and crystal stfiucture analysis, cavansite is orthorhombic, conforms to space group Pcmn (D2h 6), has a unit cell with a=lO.298(4), b=l3.999(7), c=9.6O1(2) Angstroms, contains four formula units, is optically biaxial positive and strongly pleochroic. Pentagonite, the dimorph, occurs as prismatic crystals twinned to form fivelings with a star­ shaped cross section. Also orthorhombic, it belongs to space group 12 Ccm21(C2v ), and has a unit cell with a=lO.298(4), b=13.999(7), and c=B.891(2) Angstroms, and also contains ··four formula units. The pentagonite crystals are optically very similar to cavansite, but are biaxially negative. The cell dimensions given tend to vary· to a small degree, presumably because of varying zeolitic water content.

Agpaitic nepheline syenites have complex, Na-Ca-Zr-Ti minerals as the main hosts for zirconium and titanium, rather than zircon and titanite, which are characteristic for miaskitic rocks. The transition from a miaskitic to an agpaitic crystallization regime in silica-undersaturated magma has traditionally been related to increasing peralkalinity of the magma, but halogen and water contents are also important parameters. The Larvik Plutonic Complex (LPC) in the Permian Oslo Rift, Norway consists of intrusions of hypersolvus monzonite (larvikite), nepheline monzonite (lardalite) and nepheline syenite. Pegmatites ranging in composition from miaskitic syenite with or without nepheline to mildly agpaitic nepheline syenite are the latest products of magmatic differentiation in the complex. The pegmatites can be grouped in (at least) four distinct suites from their magmatic Ti and Zr silicate mineral assemblages.

    Solution Deposition of a Bournonite CuPbSbS3 Semiconductor Thin Film from the Dissolution of Bulk Materials with a Thiol-Amine Sol- vent Mixture Kristopher M. Koskela, Brent C. Melot, and Richard L. Brutchey* Department of Chemistry, University of Southern California, Los Angeles, CA 90089, United States ABSTRACT: There is considerable interest in the exploration of new solar absorbers that are environmentally stable, absorb through the visible, and possess a polar crystal structure. Bournonite CuPbSbS3 is a naturally occurring sulfosalt mineral that crys- tallizes in the non-centrosymmetric Pmn21 space group and possesses an optimal band gap for single junction solar cells; however, the synthetic literature on this quaternary semiconductor is sparse and it has yet to be deposited and studied as a thin film. Here we describe the ability of a binary thiol-amine solvent mixture to dissolve the bulk bournonite mineral as well as inexpensive bulk CuO, PbO, and Sb2S3 precursors at room temperature and ambient pressure to generate an ink. The synthetic compound ink derived from the dissolution of the bulk binary precursors in the right stoichiometric ratios yields phase-pure thin films of CuPbSbS3 upon solution deposition and annealing. The resulting semiconductor thin films possess a direct optical band gap of 1.24 eV, an absorp- tion coefficient ~105 cm–1 through the visible, mobilities of 0.01-2.4 cm2 (V•s)–1, and carrier concentrations of 1018 – 1020 cm–3. These favorable optoelectronic properties suggest CuPbSbS3 thin films are excellent
