abstract = {The new mineral mazorite, ideally Ba3(PO4)2, a P-analogue of gurimite Ba3(VO4)2, was discovered in rankinite paralava hosted by the massive gehlenite-bearing pyrometamorphic rocks of the Hatrurim Complex in Israel. It has also recently been discovered in xenolith samples from the Bellerberg volcano in Germany. Holotype mazorite usually forms colourless plate-like crystals up to 70–100 μm in length but also occurs in small aggregates in association with other rare Ba-bearing minerals such as zadovite, celsian, hexacelsian, bennesherite, sanbornite, walstromite, fresnoite, gurimite, alforsite and barioferrite. The mineral is transparent, exhibits vitreous lustre and has a good cleavage on (001). Optically, mazorite is uniaxial (+), with ω = 1.760(3) and ε = 1.766(3) (λ = 589 nm). The empirical formula of the holotype mazorite calculated on 8O is (Ba2.69K0.22Na0.04Ca0.02Sr0.01)Σ2.98(P1.16V0.57S0.24Al0.04Si0.03)Σ2.04O8. Mazorite crystallises in space group R̿3m, with unit-cell parameters a = 5.6617(5) Å},

abstract = {The palmierite supergroup, approved by the IMA-CNMNC, includes five mineral species characterised by the general crystal-chemical formula XIIM1XM22(IVTO4)2 (Z = 3). On the basis of the crystal-chemical arguments and heterovalent isomorphic substitution scheme M++T6+ ↔ M2++T5+, the palmierite supergroup can be formally divided into two groups: the palmierite group M12+M22+(T6+O4)2, and the tuite group M12+M222+(T5+O4)2. Currently, the palmierite group includes palmierite K2Pb(SO4)2, and kalistrontite K2Sr(SO4)2, whereas the tuite group combines tuite Ca3(PO4)2, mazorite Ba3(PO4)2, and gurimite Ba3(VO4)2. The isostructural supergroup members crystallise in space group R̅3m (no. 166). The palmierite-type crystal structure is characterised by a sheet arrangement composed of layers formed by M1O12 and M2O10 polyhedra separated by TO4 tetrahedra perpendicular to the c axis. The abundance of distinct ions, which may be hosted at the M and T sites (M = K; Na; Ca; Sr; Ba; Sr; Pb; Rb; Zn; Tl; Cs; Bi; NH4 and REE; T = Si; P; V; As; S; Se; Mo; Cr and W) implies many possible combinations, resulting in potentially new mineral species. Minerals belonging to the palmierite supergroup are relatively rare and usually form under specific conditions, and their synthetic counterparts play a significant role in various industrial applications. © The Author(s), 2023.

abstract = {Gismondine-Sr, recently discovered in the Hatrurim Complex in Israel, has been recognised in a xenolith sample from the Bellerberg volcano in Germany. The empirical crystal-chemical formula indicates elevated K content: (Sr1.74Ca1.05Ba0.09K1.56Na0.49)Σ4.93[Al7.98Si8.06O32]·9.62H2O. Additionally, Ba-rich gismondine and amicite have been found in the low-temperature mineral association of the pyrometamorphic rock from the Hatrurim Complex. The Raman spectra of the studied zeolites and the crystal structure of gismondine-Sr from the second occurrence are presented. A review of zeolites with GIS framework-type structure leads to the following conclusions: (1) garronite-Na and gobbinsite are equivalent and constitute a solid solution with garronite-Ca; (2) gismondine-Ca, -Sr, and amicite belong to one mineral series; (3) two zeolites series with different R-factors (defined as Si/(Si+Al+Fe)) can be distinguished within GIS topology: the garronite series (R > 0.6) including garronite-Ca and gobbinsite, with general formula (MyD0.5(x-y))[AlxSi(16-x)O32]·nH2O, where M and D refer to monovalent and divalent cations, respectively; and the gismondine series, including amicite, gismondine-Sr and gismondine-Ca, with R ≈ 0.5, and the general formula (MyD0.5(8-y))[Al8Si8O32]·nH2O. The Raman band between 475 cm-1 and 485 cm-1 is distinctive for the garronite series, whereas the band around 460 cm-1 is characteristic of the gismondine series. On the basis of these findings, a revision of GIS zeolites nomenclature is suggested. Copyright © The Author(s), 2023.

abstract = {The cause of the split of4A4E(4G) Mn2+ excited level measured on minerals spectra is discussed. It is our view that ∆E = |4E(4G) − 4A(4G)| should be considered an important spectroscopic parameter. Among the possible reasons for the energy levels splitting taken under consideration, such as the covalent bond theory, the geometric deformation of the coordination polyhedron and the lattice site’s symmetry, the first one was found to be inappropriate. Two studied willemite samples showed that the impurities occur in one of the two available lattice sites differently in both crystals. Moreover, it was revealed that the calculated crystal field Dq parameter can indicate which of the two non-equivalent lattice sites positions in the willemite crystal structure was occupied by Mn2+ . The above conclusions were confirmed by X-ray structure measurements. Significant differences were also noted in the Raman spectra of these willemites. © 2021 by the authors.

This complex belongs to the widespread pyrometamorphic rock of the Hatrurim Complex. The spurrite marble is mainly composed of calcite, fluorapatite, and brownmillerite. Siwaqaite occurs with calcite and minerals of the baryte-hashemite series. It forms hexagonal prismatic crystals up to 250 μm in size, but most common are grain aggregates. Siwaqaite exhibits a canary yellow color and a yellowish-gray streak. The mineral is transparent and has a vitreous luster. It shows perfect cleavage on (1010). Parting or twinning is not observed. The calculated density of siwaqaite is 1.819 g/cm3. Siwaqaite is optically uniaxial (-) with ω = 1.512(2), ϵ = 1.502(2) (589 nm), and non-pleochroic. The empirical formula of the holotype siwaqaite calculated on the basis of 8 framework cations and 26 water molecules is Ca6.01(Al1.87Si0.12)S1.99[(CrO4)1.71(SO4)1.13(SeO4)0.40]S3.24(OH)11.63·26H2O. Xâ'ray diffraction (XRD), Raman, and infrared spectroscopy confirm the presence of OH- groups and H2O molecules and absence of (CO3)2- groups. The crystal structure of this Cr6+-analog of ettringite was solved by direct methods using single-crystal synchrotron XRD data. The structure was refined to an agreement index R1 = 4.54%. The crystal structure of siwaqaite consists of {Ca6[Al(OH)6]2·24H2O}6+ columns with the inter-column space (channels) occupied by (CrO4)2-, (SO4)2-, (SeO4)2-, and (SO3)2- groups and H2O molecules. The tetrahedrally coordinated site occupied by different anion groups is subjected to disordering and rotation of these tetrahedra within the structure. The temperature of siwaqaite formation is not higher than ~70-80 °C, as is evident from the mineral association and as inferred from the formation conditions of the natural and synthetic members of the ettringite group minerals, which are stable at conditions of T < 120 °C and pH = 9.5-13. The name siwaqaite is derived from the name of the holotype locality-Siwaqa area, where the mineral was found. © 2020 Walter de Gruyter GmbH, Berlin/Boston 2020.},

abstract = {Until now, only the colourless crystals of mineral afwillite, Ca3(HSiO4)2·2H2O, were known from several localities around the world. Present work focuses on blue afwillite counterparts from the Ma'ale Adummim locality in Palestine. Using the wide spectrum of analytical methods we attempted to identify the causes of this unusual colour. Structural investigation confirms the presence of two tetrahedral SiO3OH units connected by hydrogen bonds. The Raman spectrum of afwillite, obtained for the first time, shows the increased number of bands in the range of 785-970 cm-1, whose assignation was correlated with the presence of two different kinds of structural units: (SiO3OH)3- and its deprotonated counterpart (SiO4)4-. The heating process at 250 °C, in addition to the colour changes from blue to pastel green, shows the intensity reduction and disappearing of some Raman bands attributed mainly to SiO3OH units. The IR investigation confirms also the presence of that unit and provides information that the position and designation of infrared bands above ∼2300 cm-1 is related to the strength of hydrogen bonds within the structure. The stretching and bending OH vibrations of afwillite sample show the partial shift to the lower spectral frequencies after the H/D isotopic exchange in OH or H2O groups. Based on the results of the electron absorption and luminescence analyses it has been proposed that the blue colour of afwillite is caused by hole oxygen defect, most probably SiO3 -. © 2019 The Authors},

abstract = {A number of the baryte, BaSO4, - hashemite, BaCrO4, solid solution compounds were synthesized previously. In this study, Raman spectra of naturally occurring phases belonging to the baryte-hashemite series from the pyrometamorphic rocks of the Hatrurim Complex were investigated. The Raman spectrum of natural hashemite, obtained for the first time, shows the position of the fundamental bands for the chromate anion vibrations. The bands related to the stretching vibrations (ν1; ν3) occur at 864 cm−1 and in 871–909 cm−1 regions, whereas the bending vibrations (ν2; ν4) are visible in the 346–360 cm−1 and 400–422 cm−1 range, respectively. Received results allowed to observe a gradual shift of bands in baryte-hashemite solid solution as a consequence of the substitution by different cations. The position of bands depends on the Cr/S ratio in analysed samples, and it is determined by differences in atomic mass, and ionic radii between Cr6+ and S6+, which affect changes in the strength and length of bonds. The occupancy of the same atomic position by two different cations enables to notice variations of polyhedra geometry, and unit cell parameters despite that baryte and hashemite are isostructural and crystallize in the same Pnma space group. We also confirm that the immobilization of the toxic (CrO4)2− ion in the baryte structure may occur directly without oxygen state reduction, we propose to using a baryte-hashemite solid solution as a reservoir for the incorporation of Cr as an environmental pollutant. © 2018 Elsevier B.V.},

In the holotype specimen, sharyginite is widespread in the contact zone of xenolith with alkali basalt. Sharyginite is associated with fluorellestadite, cuspidine, brownmillerite, rondorfite, larnite and minerals of the chlormayenite-wadalite series. The mineral usually forms flat crystals up to 100 µm in length, which are formed by pinacoids {100}, {010} and {001}. Crystals are flattened on (010). Sharyginite is dark brown, opaque with a brown streak and has a sub-metallic lustre. In reflected light, it is light grey and exhibits rare yellowish-brown internal reflections. The calculated density of sharyginite is 3.943 g·cm-3.

The strongest lines of the calculated powder diffraction pattern are [d; Å (I) hkl]: 2.358(100) 102, 1.970(93)110, 3.023(78) 011, 6.523(36) 001, 3.412(28) 100, 1.834(28) 103. Dzierżanowskite was also found in unusual jasmindite rocks, forming small "paleofumaroles" within areas of low-temperature hydrothermal rocks bearing larnite pseudoconglomerates at Jabel Harmun. Dzierżanowskite is a superimposed phase of the high temperature alteration of pyrometamorphic rocks, which were subjected to by-products (melts/fluids and gases) of pyrometamorphism originating in the deeper levels of combustion. © 2017 The Mineralogical Society.},
