3 Symbol for raydemarkite

The correct symbol for the new mineral raydemarkite (IMA no. 2022-015) is ryd, and not rdy, as given in CNMNC Newsletter 68.

4 Nomenclature/classification proposals approved in October 2022

Triphylite group

The triphylite group is established; it includes seven mineral species: triphylite, lithiophilite, heterosite, purpurite, simferite, karenwebberite, and natrophilite. Sicklerite and ferrisicklerite have been discredited. Simferite has been redefined as LiMg(PO4).

5 Nomenclature/classification proposals approved in November 2022

5.1 IMA 22-F: holotype redefinition for donnayite-(Y)

Proposal 22-F is accepted. Re-examination of donnayite-(Y) type specimens showed that the original description contains data collected on two different phases with simplified formulae NaCaSr3Y(CO3)6 • 3H2O and Na2Sr2YCe(CO3)6 • 3H2O. The latter corresponds to the recently approved species alicewilsonite-(YCe) (IMA 2020-055). Donnayite-(Y), with the ideal formula NaCaSr3Y(CO3)6 • 3H2O, was found in only one specimen – CMNMC 39396 – out of seven housed at the Canadian Museum of Nature, 240 McLeod St, Ottawa, ON K2P 2R1, Canada. This specimen has become the holotype of donnayite-(Y).

5.2 IMA 22-G: establishment of the mckelveyite group

Proposal 22-G is accepted, and the mckelveyite group is established. Seven minerals belong to the group: alicewilsonite-(YCe), alicewilsonite-(YLa), bainbridgeite-(YCe), donnayite-(Y), ewaldite, mckelveyite-(Y), and weloganite. Mckelveyite group minerals are carbonates with the general formula A3B3(CO3)6 • 3H2O, where A = Na, Ca, Y + HREE, Zr, and B = Sr, Ba, LREE. Their structure is based on two alternating layers with larger B cations forming one layer and smaller A cations A forming another. Different order–disorder modifications are known, resulting in triclinic, monoclinic, and trigonal minerals with essentially the same structure.

5.3 IMA 22-H: redefinition of bystrite

Proposal 22-H on bystrite is accepted. The mineral bystrite was first described as a trigonal cancrinite-related phase with the simplified formula Ca(Na,K)7(Al6Si6O24)(S)1.5 • H2O. Initially, two bystrite varieties were distinguished: (i) K-rich and Cl-deficient and (ii) Cl-rich and K-deficient. The latter mineral has been subsequently approved as a separate mineral species, sulfhydrylbystrite, with the formula Na5K2Ca(Al6Si6O24)S(HS)−. The crystal structure of the presumed Cl-rich and K-deficient bystrite variety shows that this mineral is isostructural with sulfhydrylbystrite and is its analogue with Cl− instead of (HS)− in cancrinite cages, and Na+ at the site that is predominantly occupied by K+ in sulfhydrylbystrite. The ideal formula of bystrite is consequently redefined as Na7Ca(Al6Si6O24)SCl−.

5.4 Establishment of the kristiansenite group

The proposal to establish the kristiansenite group is accepted. The group includes three mineral species: kristiansenite, with formula Ca4Sc2Sn2(Si2O7)2(Si2O6OH)2, silesiaite, with formula Ca4FeSn2(Si2O7)2(Si2O6OH)2, and kozłowskiite, with formula Ca4Fe2+Sn3(Si2O7)2(Si2O6OH)2.

[Stefan]

Das Symbol für "Asagiite" soll Asg sein. Das wurde aber bereits für "Armstrongit" vergeben.

Das Dimorph von Bernardevansite heißt Alfredopetrovite

[Stefan]

Bei Zipserit ist "P-3m" als Raumgruppe angegeben.

Müsste das nicht eher

P-31m, R-3m sein ?

[prehnit100]

was bedeuten eigentlich die Buchstaben bei manchen IMA-Nummern z.B. IMA 2018-146a ?

GA

[Stefan]

Bei der Fundstelle von "Zvěstovit-(Fe)" brauche ich Hilfe

Die Pfadangabe kann ich nicht auflösen
Ulatayskoe Ag-Cu-Co occurrence, Ulatay River, Ovgorskiy District, Tuva Republic, Eastern Siberia, Russia

Ovgorskiy District ??

Einen Fluss "Ulatay" gibt es wohl irgendwo

Vile Grüße
Stefan

[oliverOliver]

Ovgorskiy District ??

find auch absolut nix dazu - weder mit "oblast" noch "rajon" etc.

Wird wohl eine Fehlangabe sein, fürchte ich .....

[Stefan]

Alle Mineralien etc. sollten nun auch im Lexikon verfügbar sein.

Gerne dürft Ihr prüfen ob sich Fehler eingeschlichen haben oder andere Ungereimtheiten vorliegen. Meine in der Veröffentlichung gefundenen Ungereimtheiten stehen in den Beiträgen darüber und dürfen gerne diskutiert werden.

Glück Auf
Stefan

Ich vermute

Steht das im Originaldokument (PDF? Webseite?) explizit so drin? Gestern hatte ich bei einer Suche im Web keinerlei Dokument gefunden (die Newsletter werden ja sowohl vom Mineral. Mag. als auch vom Eur. J. Mineral. publiziert).

[Stefan]

Hallo Uwe,

das Originaldokument ist im ersten Beitrag zahlreiche male verlinkt. Und dort auf der Webseite ist auch ein .pdf zu finden.
Ja das steht dort so drin.

Nachtrag: Ich habe Marco Pasero angeschrieben und die 4 Punkte mitgeteilt.

> das Originaldokument ist im ersten Beitrag zahlreiche male verlinkt.

Danke. Da war ich total blind (war aber auch schon sehr spät im Büro ...).

[Stefan]

"Ovyurskiy" ist der richtige Distrikt für "Zvěstovit-(Fe)"

"asa" ist die richtige Kurzform für "Asagiite"

Die richtig Raumgruppe wird in der finalen Veröffentlichung zu finden sein.

Viele Grüße
Stefan
