Hydroxylherderite , obsolete u. a. Also known as Hydro-Herderite or Hydroxyl-Herderite , it is a rarely occurring mineral from the mineral class of " phosphates , arsenates and vanadates ". It crystallizes in the monoclinic crystal system with the chemical formula CaBe [(OH, F) | PO 4 ], so from a chemical point of view it is a calcium - beryllium phosphate with additional hydroxide ions . The compounds or elements F and OH indicated in the round brackets can represent each other in the formula ( substitution , diadochy), but are always in the same proportion to the other constituents of the mineral.

Hydroxylherderit is found mainly in the form of short-prismatic, according to the c-axis [001] or the a-axis [100] elongated crystals or in dicktafeligen by {001} individuals can reach up to 17 cm size. Also known are kidney to spherical, also radial fiber aggregates . Hydroxylherderite forms a complete series of mixed crystals with its much rarer fluorine-dominant analogue herderite , from which it cannot be distinguished macroscopically.

Etymology and history

Sigismund August Wolfgang Freiherr von Herder - namesake for Herderite and Hydroxylherderite

The US mineralogist and chemist Samuel Lewis Penfield is considered the first to describe hydroxyl herderite , who in 1894 recognized crystals of an unknown mineral from Paris in Maine / USA as fluorine-free herderite and, due to their similarity to herderite and the chemical composition, instead of OH from F introduced the name Hydro-Herderit (Hydroherderit). Over fifty years later, Charles Palache , Harry Berman and Clifford Frondel changed this name to hydroxyl herderite and defined the mineral as the end member of a mixed crystal series with herderite and thus as a species of its own. The basis of this definition remains unclear, as an analysis which would have proven a fluorine-dominant herderite did not exist up to this point in time. Again over fifty years the mineral was renamed Hydroxylherderite. For a long time, hydroxyl herderite was "only" considered a variety of herderite - and in 1987 it was still called that.

Type material of the mineral is not defined. According to other information, the type material of the hydroxyl herderite is located at Yale University , New Haven , Connecticut , United States (Catalog No. Brush 1971, 1972, 1974, 1975).

classification

Already in the outdated, but partly still in use 8th edition of the mineral classification according to Strunz , the hydroxyl herderite belonged to the mineral class of "phosphates, arsenates and vanadates" and there to the department of "anhydrous phosphates, with foreign anions F, Cl, O, OH", where he together with Babefphit , Bergslagit , Herderit and Väyrynenit formed the unnamed group VII / B.01 .

The 9th edition of Strunz's mineral systematics , which has been in effect since 2001 and is used by the International Mineralogical Association (IMA), also assigns hydroxyl herderite to the category of “phosphates etc. with additional anions; without H 2 O “. However, this is further subdivided according to the relative size of the cations involved and the molar ratio of the additional anions to the phosphate, arsenate or vanadate complex (RO 4 ), so that the mineral can be found in the sub-section “With small and medium-sized cations” according to its composition is, where only together with Bergslagit and Herderit the "Herderit group" with the system no. 8.BA.10 forms.

The systematics of minerals according to Dana , which is mainly used in the English-speaking world , assigns hydroxyl herderite to the class of "phosphates, arsenates and vanadates" and there to the category of "anhydrous phosphates, etc., with hydroxyl or halogen". Here he is the namesake of the "Herderit Group" with the system no. 41.05.04 and the other members Bergslagit, Herderit and Väyrynenit can be found in the subsection " Anhydrous phosphates etc., with hydroxyl or halogen with (AB) 2 (XO4) Zq ".

Chemism

The analysis of the "Hydro-Herderite" from Paris, Maine / USA, showed contents of 34.04% CaO; 16.13% BeO; 44.05% P 2 O 5 ; 5.85% H 2 O and only traces of fluorine , which were idealized to the formula CaBePO 4 OH. Of the hydroxyl herderites investigated by Peter B. Leavens, Pete J. Dunn, and Richard V. Gaines, one from the Palermo # 1 mine near North Groton, New Hampshire, has the lowest fluorine content and the highest proportion of hydroxyl herderite at 98 mole percent. Contents of 34.17% CaO; 43.14% P 2 O 5 and 0.19% fluorine measured.

The formula of the pure hydroxyl end member CaBePO 4 OH requires contents of 34.82% CaO; 15.53% BeO, 44.06% P 2 O 5 and 5.59% H 2 O.

Hydroxylherderite is the hydroxyl-dominant analogue of the fluorine-dominated herderite, with which it forms a continuous series of mixed crystals . A fluorine content of 5.86% by weight characterizes the center of the mixed crystal row. Crystals with a fluorine content of less than 5.86% by weight are hydroxyl herderite; if the value is greater than 5.86% by weight, it is herderite.

Crystal structure

Hydroxylherderite crystallizes monoclinically in the space group P 2 1 / a (space group no. 14, position 3) with the lattice parameters a  = 9.79  Å ; b  = 7.66 Å; c  = 4.80 Å and β = 90.0 ° as well as four formula units per unit cell . Template: room group / 14.3

The crystal structure of the Hydroxylherderits consists of layers of corner-sharing BeO 3 (OH, F) - and PO 4 - tetrahedra , by layers of edge-sharing CaO in the direction of the c-axis [001] 6 (OH, F) 2 - polyhedra are connected. Each tetrahedron layer contains alternating PO 4 and BeO 3 (OH, F) polyhedra, which form a framework of centrosymmetrical rings of four and eight parallel (001). The CaO 6 (OH, F) 2 polyhedra can best be described as slightly distorted tetragonal antiprisms that - over common edges - form a layer of rings of six. Despite its pronounced layer structure, hydroxyl herderite is only indistinctly cleavable.

Hydroxylherderite is isotypic to Datolith (and Herderite), i.e. H. it crystallizes with the same structure as datolith.

morphology

Hydroxylherderite can form very large crystals, which differ greatly in costume and habit . They are short prismatic according to the a-axis or the c-axis or thick-paneled according to {001}. The crystals are often very complex and extensive and therefore have a rounded appearance. They are dominated by the pinacoids {100}, {010}, {001} and {102} as well as the prisms {011}, {012}, {021}, {110}, {111}, {112}, {113} , { 1 12}, { 1 11} and { 1 23}. The crystals of the hydroxyl herderite have a mostly pseudo-orthorhombic effect due to the angle β, which deviates only insignificantly from 90 °, as well as the almost always existing twinning. The crystals from the first place of discovery in Paris and those from Topsham, both Maine / USA, are among the few representatives of the hydroxyl herderites that clearly indicate that they belong to the monoclinic crystal system (see the crystal drawings on the right). The largest crystals with up to 17 cm come from the Lavra do Xanda, Virgem da Lapa, Minas Gerais, Brazil.

Drawing of an idealized hydroxyl herderite quadruplet

Samuel Lewis Penfield was the first to draw attention to the formation of twins in hydroxylherderite crystals. Hydroxylherderite can either form twins according to {001} with {001} as the twin plane or according to {100} with {100} as the twin plane. Twinning according to {001} is v. a. known from the crystals from the "Golconda pegmatite" in Minas Gerais, twinning after {100} - although difficult to identify in many cases - shows practically all larger crystals. In addition, quadruplets according to both twin laws are known, especially from the "Golconda Pegmatit" and here from the "Lavra da Golconda Velha", which form characteristic "fishtail" contact twins (cf. the crystal drawing on the right). The twin crystals of Virgem da Lapa show on {112} and on {010} a striation caused by the formation of twins, often "curved" . Etched figures are also occasionally observed. Hydroxylherderite was found in the form of sharp-edged crystals as inclusions in other minerals.

Also known are kidney to spherical aggregates with radial fibers on the inside, which represent pseudomorphoses according to beryllonite . Spherical aggregates of thin-tabular hydroxylherderite crystals come from the Lavra do Jaime near Linópolis in Minas Gerais, Brazil.

physical and chemical properties

Hydroxylherderite crystals are colorless, gray, brown, pale yellow, greenish white, light blue or violet, but their line color is always white. Crystals from Virgem da Lapa, Minas Gerais, show an alexandrite-like color change from blue-green or blue in daylight to lavender or light purple in incandescent lamp light. The surfaces of the translucent to transparent crystals show a glass or resin- like sheen . Hydroxylherderite has a medium high light and a medium high to high birefringence (δ = 0.033). The level of light refraction correlates linearly with the fluorine content of the herderite-hydroxylherderite mixed crystals. It decreases with increasing fluorine content. Chatoyance (cat's eye effect) show the up to 7 cm long, beige to light brown colored crystals from the "Lavra Olho de Gato" near Golconda not far from Governador Valadares, Minas Gerais, Brazil.

In transmitted light, hydroxylherderite is colorless and without pleochroism , with green herderite-hydroxylherderite mixed crystals showing a weak to moderate pleochroism from green to yellowish green.

Hydroxylherderite is indistinctly cleavable according to (110), but because of its brittleness it breaks like quartz or glass , with the fracture surfaces being half-shell. The mineral has a Mohs hardness of 5 to 5.5 and is one of the medium-hard minerals that can be scratched with a pocket knife just as easily as the reference mineral apatite . The measured density for hydroxyl herderite is 2.95 g / cm³, the calculated density is 2.94-2.97 g / cm³.

In front of the soldering tube , the hydroxyl herderite expands and melts into white enamel. It colors the flame pale green. In the closed tube the crystals turn white, decrepitate violently and give off weakly acidic water. In hydrochloric acid (HCl) it is slowly but completely soluble. Hydroxylherderite shows a faint yellow fluorescence in short-wave UV light , which may be accompanied by a bright yellow-orange-colored phosphorescence .

Education and Locations

Hydroxylherderite twin with a clear re-entrant angle from Linópolis, Divino das Laranjeiras, Doce Valley, Minas Gerais, Brazil (size: 6 cm × 4.6 cm × 1.2 cm)
Green hydroxyl herderite crystal from "Dara-i-Pech" in Afghanistan (size: 7 cm × 6 cm × 4 cm)
Green hydroxyl herderite on topaz from Dassu in the Braldu Valley, Pakistan (size: 3 cm × 2.9 cm × 2.2 cm)

Hydroxylherderite is a late-formed mineral and is formed during the pneumatolytic and / or hydrothermal phase of the crystallization of acidic plutonites . It is found in complex granite pegmatites , in peripheral old men and in miarolithic cavities associated with granites and granite pegmatites . During the investigation of different representatives of the herderite-hydroxylherderite mixed crystal series, originating from materially and genetically different Brazilian pegmatites, it turned out that the degree of differentiation of the pegmatite magma is possibly the cause of whether herderite or hydroxyl herderite is formed. Samples from pegmatites, which are rich in montebrasite and lepidolite , have low fluorine contents and consequently represent hydroxyl herderites. Samples from triphyline-rich pegmatites show medium fluorine contents and form intermediate representatives of the herderite-hydroxyl herderite mixed crystal series. Samples from muscovite and topaz-rich pegmatites have a high fluorine content and must be referred to as herderite. This relationship can be explained by the degree of differentiation of the pegmatite magma , according to which lithium-rich pegmatites show lower fluorine contents and predominance of hydroxyl herderite in the hydrothermal system, while muscovite and topaz-rich pegmatites have higher fluorine contents and a predominance of fluorine-rich herderite in the hydrothermal system.

According to other authors, hydroxyl herderite is secondary to the postmagmatic alteration in rare metal granites at comparatively low temperatures of ≈ 250 ° C. Hydroxylherderite can form through alteration of beryl or beryllonite during the calcium-rich hydrothermal crystallization (Ca metasomatosis ) that occurs at a later stage . In this case, the formation of the hydroxyl herderite - as with other beryllophosphates such. B. Parafranoletit , Ca 3 Be 2 (PO 4 ) 2 (PO 3 OH) 2 · 4H 2 O - attributed to the action of phosphorus-containing solutions on beryl or beryllonite.

Typical accompanying minerals to hydroxyl herderite are tourmaline ( elbaite ), topaz , cassiterite , albite , microcline , muscovite , lepidolite and quartz .

Hydroxylherderite has been described as a rather rare mineral formation so far (as of 2016) from around 120 sites. A type locality is not defined for the mineral, but a fluorine-free "hydro-herderite" was first described in 1894 from Paris , Maine , United States .

From sites in Germany , the "Herderite" known from Epprechtstein and Waldstein , both in the Fichtelgebirge , Upper Franconia , Bavaria , have proven to be intermediate hydroxylherderite-herderite mixed crystals with a slight dominance of OH over F. The extent to which this applies to the material from all quarries in this area (such as the “Reinersreuth” (“Köhlerloch”), “Zufurt”, “Grasymabruch” or “Schoberth” quarry) still needs an analytical review. The only analysis carried out with modern methods on "Herderite" from the type locality Ehrenfriedersdorf in the Saxon Ore Mountains showed CaBe [((OH) 0.52 F 0.48 ) | PO 4 ] also an OH-dominant mineral and thus a hydroxyl herderite.

The quarries on the slope of the Luftenberg near St. Georgen an der Gusen not far from Perg , Mühlviertel , Upper Austria , Austria , have delivered hydroxyl herderite crystals up to 4.8 cm in size. Another Austrian site for hydroxyl herderite is the lithium occurrence on the ridge of the fire ( spodumene test mining) on ​​the Weinebene deposit , Moschkogel-Weinebene area on the Koralpe , Carinthia . There are no known occurrences of hydroxyl herderite in Switzerland .

In Europe , hydroxyl herderite is also from the "Viitaniemi pegmatite" (type locality for Väyrynenite and Viitaniemiite ) in the area of Eräjärvi near Orivesi , Finland ; from the Svetlinskii pegmatite near “Svetlyi” not far from Plast , Chelyabinsk Oblast , Southern Urals , Ural Federal District , Russia ; from the "Miniera Seula" (Cava Montecatini) on Monte Camoscio near Oltrefiume not far from Baveno , Province of Verbano-Cusio-Ossola , Piedmont , Italy ; from the “Carrière de Beauvoir”, Échassières near Ébreuil , Département Allier , Auvergne , France , from the “Rožná pegmatites” near Žďár nad Sázavou , Vysočina region , Moravia , Czech Republic ; and from the “Pedreira do Carvalhal” and “Pedreira das Romãs” quarries, both near Romãs not far from Sátão , Distrito de Viseu , Portugal .

In Asia , the mineral is known from the tantalum "Ungursai" deposit on the Irtysh , Qalbagebirge , East Kazakhstan , Kazakhstan . In Afghanistan from the “Dara-i-Pech pegmatite field”, Chapa Dara district , Kunar province , and “Paprok”, Kamdesh district , Nuristan province . In the Pakistani special territory Gilgit-Baltistan (former Northern Areas) from "Bulochi" in the Astor Valley and from the Drot Valley, both in the Astore district . In the Skardu district of “Apo Ali Gun”, “Byansahpi”, “Chhappu”, “Dassu”, “Seydar” near “Hoh Nala” and “Nyet-Bruk”, all in the Braldu Valley; from “Stak Nala”, “Shengus” and “Sabsar”, all in the Haramosh Mountains; and of "Mungo" in the Shigar Valley. In the Gilgit district of “Dache” in the Haramosh Mountains, from “Chumar Bakhoor” near Nagar in the Hunza Valley, and from “Sassi”, all in Pakistan . The representatives of the Herderite-Hydroxylherderite mixed crystal series known from Pakistan have often not yet been investigated in more detail, so that their exact assignment to the end members of the mixed crystal series is unknown. Green crystals from the "Kandahar Mine" located about 35 km north of Skardu near Baha in the Braldu Valley, Gilgit-Baltistan are, according to their refractive indices, intermediate representatives of the Herderite-Hydroxylherderite mixed crystal series. The same applies to the green crystals from near Chhappu in the Braldu Valley and from the gemstone mining near Doko in the Basha Valley .

Countless colorless to white hydroxylherderite crystals from the Erongo Mountains in Namibia (size: 4.5 cm × 3.9 cm × 2.5 cm)

In Africa , hydroxyl herderite is known from miaroles in the Erongo Mountains north of Usakos , Erongo region , Namibia .

use

Due to its gemological characteristics (color, transparency, refractive indices, hardness and size of the crystals), hydroxyl herderite is often ground, although with a Mohs hardness of 5.5 or less it is actually too soft for a gemstone. Faceted stones from Maine / USA are usually small and colorless or show only pale hues. Brazilian stones have more intense colors and can weigh 25-30 ct. A 161.09 ct cut stone originally classified as Herderite has dimensions of 57.9 mm × 27.4 mm × 17.1 mm and is believed to have come from Ouro Verde, Minas Gerais, Brazil. He is now under catalog number NMNH G10542-00 in the collection of the Smithsonian Institution belonging to National Museum of Natural History , Washington, DC In addition Hydroxylherderit is a popular with mineral collectors mineral.
