Stefan:
New minerals and nomenclature modifications approved in 2014

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 Mineralogical
Magazine 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.
NO OTHER INFORMATION WILL BE RELEASED BY THE COMMISSION

NOMENCLATURE PROPOSAL APPROVED IN JUNE 2014

Tobermorite group
A new nomenclature scheme has been approved for minerals in the tobermorite group. Several minerals in the group were also redefined.
Plombièrite has been redefined as: [Ca4Si6O16(OH)2·2H2O]·(Ca·5H2O); tobermorite has been redefined as two minerals: tobermorite [Ca4Si6O17·2H2O]·(Ca·3H2O) and kenotobermorite [Ca4Si6O15(OH)2·2H2O]· 3H2O; clinotobermorite has been redefined as [Ca4Si6O17·2H2O]·(Ca·3H2O); and riversideite has been redefined as a questionable species.

NOMENCLATURE PROPOSALS APPROVED IN JULY 2014

IMA 14-B: Thorogummite
Proposal 14-B is accepted, and ‘‘thorogummite’’ is discredited. This name has been used to describe heterogeneous mixtures of secondary, non-crystalline minerals, produced by the alteration, hydration, or metamictization of thorite.

IMA 14-E: Jamborite
Proposal 14-E is accepted, and jamborite is no longer a ‘‘questionable species’’ but a valid species. Jamborite lies outside the hydrotalcite supergroup as defined by Mills et al. (2012); its ideal formula is Ni2+1-xCo3+x(OH)2-x(SO4)x·nH2O [x = ?; n = (1 - x)].
