NOMENCLATURE PROPOSAL APPROVED IN MARCH 2014
IMA 13-C: Mayenite-Supergruppe A proposal to modify the nomenclature of the mayenite-Supergruppe has been approved. As a consequence, the mineral brearleyite has been discredited as being the same as chlormayenite; mayenite has been redefined and renamed chlormayenite; kyuygenite has been renamed chlorkyuygenite; a-Gruppe nomenclature has been established for the mayenite-Supergruppe.
NOMENCLATURE PROPOSALS APPROVED IN APRIL 2014
IMA 13-E: Barylite-clinobarylite
The proposal 13-E has been accepted and the mineral ‘‘clinobarylite’’ is discredited since it corresponds to the polytype barylite-1O. The mineral reported in the literature as barylite corresponds to the polytype barylite-2O.
IMA 14-A: Thénardite
The proposal 14-A has been accepted and the mineral name ‘‘thenardite’’ becomes thénardite, in agreement with its original spelling.
IMA 14-C: Litidionite
The proposal 14-C has been accepted and the mineral name ‘‘lithidionite’’ becomes litidionite, in agreement with its original spelling.
REVISED CHEMICAL FORMULAE
A paper on the mineral magbasite has been recently published [Mineralogical Magazine, 78 (2014), 29–45] in which the ideal chemical formula of the mineral is given as KBaFe3+Mg7Si8O22(OH)2F6. These data were examined carefully by the CNMNC officers and were considered reliable. Accordingly it was agreed to modify the formula of magbasite in the official IMA List of Minerals.
A paper on the mineral widenmannite has been recently published [American Mineralogist, 99 (2014), 276–282] in which the ideal chemical formula of the mineral is given as Pb2(OH)2[(UO2)(CO3)2]. These data were examined carefully by the CNMNC officers and were considered reliable. Accordingly it was agreed to modify the formula of widenmannite in the official IMA List of Minerals.
