Each mineral is described in the following format: Mineral name, if the authors agree on its release prior to the full description appearing in press Chemical formula Type locality Full authorship of proposal E-mail address of corresponding author Relationship to other minerals Crystal system, Space group; Structure determined, yes or no Unit-cell parameters Strongest lines in the X-ray powder diffraction pattern Type specimen repository and specimen number Citation details for the mineral prior to publication of full description Citation details concern the fact that this information will be published in the European Journal of Mineralogy on a routine basis, as well as being added month by month to the Commission’s web site. It is still a requirement for the authors to publish a full description of the new mineral.
