NOMENCLATURE/CLASSIFICATION PROPOSALS APPROVED IN SEPTEMBER 2021

An end-member formula for humite, Mg₇(SiO₄)₃F₂

The humite polysomatic series consists of a set of minerals with the general formula n[Mg₂(SiO₄)]⋅Mg(OH,F)₂, with n = 1, 2, 3, or 4. The valid species and their corresponding chemical formulae, taken from the current IMA List of Minerals, are as follows:

(n = 1)

Norbergite, Mg₃(SiO₄)F₂

(n = 2)

Chondrodite, Mg₅(SiO₄)₂F₂

Hydroxylchondrodite, Mg₅(SiO₄)₂(OH)₂

(n = 3)

Humite, Mg₇(SiO₄)₃(F,OH)₂

(n = 4)

Clinohumite, Mg₉(SiO₄)₄F₂

Hydroxylclinohumite, Mg₉(SiO₄)₄(OH)₂

The only species without an end-member formula is humite, Mg₇(SiO₄)₃(F,OH)₂, which has both fluorine and hydroxyl within the same brackets. As in the whole series a rootname without a prefix is used for the fluorine end-member, whereas the same rootname with the prefix ‘hydroxyl-’ is used for the hydroxyl end-member, the formula Mg₇(SiO₄)₃F₂ has to be assigned to the mineral humite. This is an executive decision taken by the officers of the IMA-CNMNC.

Renaming of gismondine

Following the report of the Zeolite subcommittee, after the approval of the new mineral IMA 2021-043 – gismondine-Sr (see this Newsletter), ‘gismondine’ becomes a series name. Accordingly the mineral previously known as gismondine is renamed gismondine-Ca.

IMA 20-F: Chabournéite group

Proposal 20-F is accepted, and the chabournéite group is established. The group includes the minerals chabournéite, protochabournéite, dalnegroite, shimenite and dewitite. All members of this group are triclinic, space group P $\overline 1$, with the exception of dalnegroite, which has space group P1.

The ideal formulae of protochabournéite and chabournéite are revised as follows:

Protochabournéite – Tl_4-xPb_2+2xSb_20-x-yAs_yS₃₄ (with 0.02 ≤ x ≤ 0.34, 5.71 ≤ y ≤ 6.69).

Chabournéite – Ag_zTl_8-x-zPb_4+2xSb_40-x-yAs_yS₆₈ (with 0.00 ≤ x ≤ 0.40, 16.15 ≤ y ≤ 19.11, 0.04 ≤ z ≤ 0.11).

IMA 21-D: Redefinition of beraunite and discreditation of eleonorite

Proposal 21-D is accepted. The formula of beraunite is revised as Fe³⁺₆(PO₄)₄O(OH)₄⋅6H₂O, based on new EMPA, Mössbauer and SCXRD data obtained on type material. Eleonorite is discredited, as it is identical to beraunite.

IMA 21-E: Redefinition of minyulite

Proposal 21-E is accepted, and the formula of minyulite is redefined as KAl₂(PO₄)₂F⋅4H₂O, based on new EMPA data obtained on holotype material, which confirmed that the mineral is (OH)-free and has F as a species-forming constituent.
