Mineralienatlas (name for mineral atlas) is the platform for people interested in mineralogy, geology, palaeontology and mining since 2001. We operate a significant database for minerals, fossils, rocks and their localities. Mineralienatlas is not limited to a section. We bring together information and inform comprehensive.

To complete our information constantly, we need your support. With us, everyone can and should participate. Currently Mineralienatlas is used and expanded by 10530 members. Every month hundreds of thousands of visitors use our website as an information source.

Ara­g­onite is a cal­ci­um car­bo­nate, chem­i­cal­ly iden­ti­cal with calcite. The min­er­al calcite, how­ev­er, dif­fers from Ara­g­onite due to its in­ter­nal crys­tal struc­ture. While the crys­tal sys­tem of calcite is trig­o­n­al, the sys­tem of ara­g­onite is rhom­bic. Dense mass­es of small ara­g­onite crys­tals are dif­fi­cul ... moreAragonite is a calcium carbonate, chemically identical with calcite. The mineral calcite, however, differs from Aragonite due to its internal crystal structure. While the crystal system of calcite is trigonal, the system of aragonite is rhombic. Dense masses of small aragonite crystals are difficult to distinguish from calcite, but they are larger, they show a distinct habit.

A lot of chapters in this portrait will give you much more details about this interesting mineral. Written and investigated by Peter Seroka. (Article in german)

De­posits are one of the most im­por­tant top­ics in ge­ol­o­gy. Peter Sero­ka has ad­dressed the is­sue in sev­er­al years of work and has writ­ten an up-to-date ge­o­log­i­cal sum­mary.

Peter Seroka has addressed the issue in several years of work and has written an up-to-date geological summary. He dedicated his work to the 15 th anniversary of Mineralienatlas. The work gives detailed information regarding the origin of deposits, the different types of deposits and their classification. Examples of economically important deposits complete the chapters. Provided that this comprehensive work would be printed it would be a volume of over 400 pages; here it is provided in its entirety, online. Thanks to Peter Seroka. (written in german language).

Der gewöhnliche Habitus des Anatas ist dipyramidal, wobei die Doppelpyramide {111} spitzer als die Doppelpyramide {112} ist und der Form nach einem Oktaeder gleichkommt (aber auch rundlich oder flachdipyramidal). Die Enden der Kristalle sind unterschiedlich, oft nur an den Kristallen eine Dipyramide ohne weitere Flächen. Dies ist der am häufigst vorkommende Habitus. Weniger, jedoch nicht selten, treten Dipyramiden mit abgestumpften Spitzen auf, bzw. auch durch eine Basisfläche angeschnitten, welche wiederum von Flächen weiterer Dipyramiden begleitet sein kann. Stumpfere Dipyramidern können ... Ein Beitrag von Peter Seroka
