3 Nomenclature and classification proposals approved
in March 2022

3.1 IMA 22-A: redefinition of montanite Proposal 22-A is accepted, and the status of montanite is changed from “Q” to “Rd”. The formula of montanite is modified from Bi2TeO6·2H2O to Bi2TeO6 · nH2O (0 ≤ n ≤ 2/3), and two neotypes, preserved at the Natural History Museum in London, UK, are created. Type localities are Highland, Montana, USA (sample BM 85116), and David Beck’s Mine, North Carolina, USA (sample BM 1985, Nev336).

3.2 IMA 22-B: redefinition of moxuanxueite Proposal 22-B is accepted, and the ideal end-member formula of moxuanxueite (IMA no. 2019-100) is modified from Na2Ca5Zr(Si2O7)2F4 to NaCa6Zr(Si2O7)2OF3.

3.3 IMA 22-C: arrojadite group nomenclature – sigismundite reinstated
