The issue is dedicated to the 300th anniversary of the Fersman Mineralogical Museum of RAS, and scientific sections precede greeting to the museum and its employees from the Department of Earth Sciences of the Russian Academy of Sciences and introductory article by the director of the museum and the editor-in-chief of the journal, Dr. med. P.Yu. Plechova.<br>
+
The periodical journal New Data on Minerals has been published since 1907. The Fersman Mineralogical Museum of Russian Academy of Sciences is its founder. In the last two issues, the Russian mining company ALROSA is the general partner.
The first section contains a description of the new iron sulfide and elements of the platinum group - ferodsite, discovered in the Nizhny Tagil ultrabasic massif (Urals) and in the Conder placer (Khabarovsk Territory), and also of the supposedly new uranium phase - calcium titanosilicate, found in samples from Aldan deposits and Novokonstantinovskoye deposits (Ukraine). Unusual endogenous Association of non-sulfide minerals of chalcophilic elements from the Pelagonian massif (Macedonia), Ni-Zn-containing folbortite (“Uzbekite”) from vanadium shales of Southern Kyrgyzstan, rare silicides (nagchuit, lingzhiit, lobusait and collet) from the Sarmatian limestones of Crimea. New data on minerals of the Shishim mine in the South Urals, biominerals of lateritic bauxites, diamondiferous kimberlites and metakimberlites of Kimozero, Karelia.<br>
+
In the 53rd issue, an attempt was made to renew the historically established tradition of publishing in the journal a summary of the scientific achievements of the employees of the RAS Ministry of Museum. For 2017-2018 Scientific knowledge in the fields of mineralogy and crystallography was significantly expanded, and a significant contribution was made to understanding the processes of mineral formation. The pages of the journal show results on the properties and genesis of minerals and the characteristics of their paragenesis in various, often unique deposits and ore occurrences in Russia and other regions of the world. The current results of a mineralogical study of the Arkhangelsk diamondiferous province, Pamir pegmatites, fumaroles of the Tolbachinsky valley and coal fire sublimates of Ravat, rare-earth mineralization of the Mochalin Log, thallium mineralization of the Vorontsov deposit and finds of Kirkite at the Berezovsky gold ore deposit in the Urals are presented. Brief descriptions of 31 new mineral species are given. The authors presented the results of a study of olivine from magnesian skarns of the Baikal region and the extremely igneous extreme magnesian olivine (Fo> 96) and olivine containing up to 0.48 wt.% P2O5. In olivine of magnesian skarns, a substantial titanium content was first recorded.<br>
The section "Mineralogical museums and collections" contains articles on the history of collections in collection of the Fersman Mineralogical Museum  and about one of such collections collected by I. Wagner, as well as about the new museum exhibition “Minerals of crystal-bearing quartz veins”.<br>
+
The issue presents a series of materials on general approaches and specific methodological developments for presenting the information that mineralogical collections carry. Here, questions of the scientific and general culture of the importance of minerals are highlighted, which allows the reader to look at mineralogical samples as works of art, and compare the expertise of such exhibits with art history, removing it from the plane of a purely scientific and utilitarian assessment.<br>
“Mineralogical notes” tell about one of the historical museum exhibits from the collection Wagner - quartz with an engraved pattern on it.<br>
+
In addition to scientific and museum articles, you can find a bibliographic sketch about the oldest employee of the Ministry of Museum of the Russian Academy of Sciences M. B. Chistyakova, author of the book “Stone-cutting products in the collection of the Mineralogical Museum named after A.E. Fersman ”, which contains the first detailed description of this unique collection. The reader will find a fascinating story about the Italian instrumental master Antonio Cetti and his mineralogical collection, which later became part of the museum fund. A brief historical review is given on the creation and development of a periodical of the Mineralogical Museum named after A.E. Fersman of the Russian Academy of Sciences from its origins back in 1907 to the present day.<br>
"Personalities" include an article on the scientific keeper of the Imperial Mineralogical Museum Academy of Sciences (1887–1896) E.V. Toll, who led the Russian polar expedition of 1900–1902. The issue closes with a note on the scientific conference held at the Mineralogical Museum dedicated to its 300th anniversary (November 2016, Moscow).<br>

| Аннотация = The 51st issue of the Magazine "New Data on Minerals" is a special. It is dedicated to the 300th anniversary of the Fersman Mineralogical Museum of RAS. Therefore, we expanded the section devoted to the collections and history of the Museum, and placed a brief report on the scientific conference held at the Presidium of the RAS and the Minmuseum in November 2016 and dedicated to the 300th anniversary of the Fersman Mineralogical Museum of the RAS.
+
| Аннотация = The article is devoted to the individual characteristics of mineralogical collections that distinguish them from the collections of other objects of inanimate nature. These features are important for understanding and evaluating the general cultural significance of the mineralogical collections and individual exhibits in them. A wide intraspecific diversity, often often most pronounced precisely in visually defined characteristics, important in the museum-collection aspect, is a striking feature of a large number of minerals. In many cases, when evaluating mineralogical samples, the decisive role is played by their “unmeasured” characteristics, perceived “through feelings”, primarily compositional characteristics. This brings together exhibits of mineralogical collections, which are valued, inter alia, for aesthetic merits, with piece-wise, "non-serial" works of art, and determines, in particular, the need to take into account the "artistic" aspect in assessing the significance of an exhibit of a mineralogical collection, and brings together the expertise of such exhibits from art history, deducing it is from the plane of a purely scientific and utilitarian assessment.<br>

| Аннотация = The Department of Earth Sciences of Russian Academy of Sciences wholeheartedly congratulates with the 300th anniversary! We must remember the main stages of the history of the Museum. In 1716, in the Kunstkamera founded by Peter the Great, the Mineralogical Cabinet was created. It became the part of the Geological Museum of the Russian Academy of Sciences.
+
| Аннотация = The article is devoted to various aspects of the scientific and general cultural significance of the mineral sample, primarily as an exhibit of the mineralogical collection. Various characteristics of the mineralogical specimen are discussed, objective (museum-collection quality, rarity, unusual) and subjective (degree of knowledge, historical value, etc.), criteria for their evaluation and corresponding assessment systems, as well as approaches and specific methodological techniques that can be use in museum work when characterizing the significance of a mineralogical sample and to highlight outstanding exhibits of mineralogical collections. Special attention is paid to the duality of the concept of “rarity of a mineral” and the appropriateness of its definition in the museum business through the total number of authentically diagnosed samples of this mineral present in the collections.<br>

In the process of metasomatic conversion under highly oxidizing conditions, the sequential addition of Zn, Al, Sb, and Pb led to the formation of zinc spinelids (including ganite, replacing franklinite and heterolith), the Sb-containing iron analog of zincheggombite (epitaxy on zinc spinelides), and ferricoronadal (late hydrotherm streaks). The introduction of As occurred in 2 stages.

| Название = In the wake of the Danish Italian. Collection of Antonio Chetti (Antonio Cetti) in the Fersman Mineralogical Museum, pp. 27-34
| Аннотация = The results of the re-study of "Uzbekite" - water copper vanadate, described for the first time in Kara-Chagyr, Kyrgyzstan, based on materials from the funds of the Fersman Mineralogical Museum of RAS (Moscow) and authors` fees. “Uzbekit” from Kara-Chagyr was identified as folbortite with high contents of zinc and nickel (wt.%): ZnO up to 5.2 (average ~ 1.0–2.5); NiO up to 2.4 (average ~ 0.5–2.0). Elevated Zn and Ni contents were also found in folwortite at the U-deposit Kara-Tangi, Kyrgyzstan. Microprobe analyzes of folbortite from Kyrgyzstan and from the Karatau ridge, Kazakhstan, and water content for some samples are presented. Crystals of various morphology are described: lamellar, skeletal, forming sagenite type lattices, and unusual needle ones. Powder patterns for lamellar and needle crystals are given; their cell parameters, respectively: a = 10.620 (2), b = 5.893 (2), c = 7.213 (2) Å; b = 94.96 (2) °; V = 449.7 (4) Å3, Z = 2 and a = 10.616 (2), b = 5.899 (2), c = 7.212 (2) Å; b = 94.96 (2) °; V = 450.0 (4) Å ^ 3, Z = 2. It was shown that “Uzbekite” from other locations is either folbortite (Potekhino, Khakassia, Russia), or it is mixed with other minerals (case-like crystals of tangeite filled with a mixture of vesigneite and folbortite from Agalyk, Uzbekistan). An assumption was made of the existence of phases close to folbortite, but different in structure.

| Название = Silicides (nagchuit, lingzhiit, lobusait and collet) in the Sarmatian limestones of Crimea
+
{{NDM_article
| Аннотация = Nagchuit, lingzhiit, lobusaite and collet were found in a powdery, insoluble in HCl diluted residue of a dark gray color from organogenic clastic limestone of the Evpatoria deposit (Crimea). Among the silicide grains, nagchuit and lingzhiite predominate; lobusaite is found in subordinate quantities. Nagchuit and lingzhiit often grow together, forming grains up to 120 microns in size. Lobusaite is observed in the form of individual rare grains up to 100 microns in size. Tsangpoit was found in three grains up to 15 microns in size in close intergrowth with lingzhiit. Single grains of native silicon, presumably panguitite and unnamed Ti and W silicide, were also noted. The chemical composition (wt.%, Microprobe) of nagchuita (average of 9 anal.): Al 0.11, Ti 0.01, V 0.09, Cr 0.15, Mn 0.54, Fe 63.25 , Co 0.35, Ni 0.61, Cu 0.10, Zn 0.17, Zr 0.26, Si 33.63, sum 99.27, corresponds to the empirical formula (calculation for 2 atoms) Fe0.96Mn0.01Co0.01Ni0.01Si1.01; lingzhiita (average of 8 ann.): Al 1.83, V 0.03, Cr 0.09, Mn 0.23, Fe 46.54, Co 0.23, Ni 0.04, Zr 0.18, Si 49.94, sum 99.11, corresponds to the empirical formula (calculation for 3 atoms) Fe0. 93Al0.08Si1.99; lobusaite (average of 4 ann.): Al 1.20, V 0.06, Cr 0.15, Mn 0.11, Fe 42.60, Ni 0.10, Zr 0.73, Si 54.71, sum 99.66, corresponds to the empirical formula (calculation for 2 Si atoms) Fe0.78Al0. 05Zr0.01Si2.00; collet (average of 3 ann.): Mg 0.06, Al 1.05, Ca 0.12, Sc 0.05, Ti 24.58, V 0.36, Cr 0.43, Mn 0.36, Fe 31.49, Co 0.18, Ni 0.44, Cu 0.22, Zn 0.03, Zr 3.50 , Nb 0.58, Mo 0.55, Cd 0.12, In 0.11, Sn 0.09, Cs 0.21, W1.97, Si 32.70, sum 99.20, corresponds to the empirical formula (calculation for 4 atoms) Ti0.86Zr0.07W0.02V0.01Nb0.01Mo0. 01Fe0.94Ca0.01Cr0.01Mn0.01Co0.01Ni0.01Cu0.01Si1.95Al0.07. Diagnostics of nagchuit, lingzhiit and lobusaite is confirmed by x-ray; for other minerals, due to their rarity and small size, X-ray characteristics were not obtained. Lobusaite and zangpoite were the first in Russia, and they were first found in the Crimea and Linguiite.

}} {{NDM_article
+
| Аннотация = In the present work, cassiterite of fumarole genesis was first characterized. It was found in the deposits of the active fumarole Arsenatnaya (Second slag cone of the Northern breakthrough of the Great Fissure Tolbachinsky eruption 1975–76, Tolbachinsky dol, Tolbachik volcanic massif, Kamchatka), where it is closely associated with “salt” minerals - sylvin, halite - and alkaline sulfates of the group aphthalitis, as well as with anhydrous arsenates of Ca, Mg, Na, Fe and Cu. Cassiterite here is represented by “fluffy” soft radial-radiant aggregates of fine-needle to hairy crystals in the cavities, which is a consequence of rapid crystallization from the gas phase. It also forms a sagenite lattice on hematite, which was recorded for cassiterite for the first time.<br>

| Название = On calcium uranium titanosilicate and its significance for the technological processing of uranium ores
 
| Аннотация = When studying samples from various uranium deposits of Aldan (Elkonsky gold-uranium ore cluster) and the Novokonstantinovskoye deposit (Ukraine), a mineral was discovered with the composition: UO2 »58–62%; CaO 5-7%; TiO2 »18–22%; SiO2 »10–11%, which can be described by the idealized formula Ca (U, Ca) 3Ti3 [SiO4] 2 (O, OH) 8 (calculated for 16 oxygen atoms). It was established in breccias with carbonate cement of various compositions developed in quartz-feldspar metasomatites in the form of microgranular clusters and clusters of prismatic crystals (10–50 μm) in breccia cement. Sometimes it performs cracks in veins of glandular dolomite in polyphase breccias. Energy dispersive spectra showed the absence of superposition of the lines of the studied phase and associated minerals. The chemical composition was determined using a CamScan electron scanning microscope with a Link spectrometer and AN10000 analyzer. The results obtained allow us to consider this mineral as a potentially new mineral species, conventionally called "calcium uranium titanosilicate." The mineral was formed in association with glandular dolomite, siderite and / or ankerite. Probably, his education preceded brannerite. The mineral fraction in the uranium component of ores is 20–80%, that is, “calcium uranium titanosilicate” is one of the main ore minerals in the considered objects. The prevalence of it and other calcium-containing ore minerals in the studied ores, as well as the presence of a carbonate component in them, makes it necessary to modernize the methods for extracting useful components from them. The use of circulating volumes of solutions, the absence of the need for additional enrichment and other measures will positively affect the economic and environmental performance of production.

| Название = Laterite bauxite biominerals - new data from electron microscopic studies
+
| Название = Find of Kirkyite at the Berezovsky gold ore deposit (Middle Urals), pp. 80-85
| Аннотация =  A systematic study of lateritic bauxite using electron microscopes revealed abundant products of the interaction of organic matter (biota) and minerals. New data were obtained on the mineralization in tropical conditions of algal deposits, wood, the root system of vegetation, biofilms and bacteria and their subsequent transformation into biomorphoses, perfect crystals of goethite, hematite, gibbsite, calcite and bizarre forms of psilomelan. Unique photographs demonstrate the ground products of the digestive tract of digging and crawling organisms and the single prismatic Gibbsite crystals formed from them, and then their mass development. It has been established that monomineral gibbsite is crystallized in the passages and burrows of worms in bauxites. In the free spaces of large pores and caverns on the surface of biofilms, similar products turn into a mixture of gibbsite, hematite, calcite, in some places, halloysite and psilomelan. Undoubtedly, the composition of mineral associations is affected by microlocal conditions and the influx of calcium, silicon, and other chemical elements with capillary waters during dry seasons. Biomineralization products are microscopic in size, but they have universal and global significance for all weathering crusts (especially tropical ones) and the associated sedimentary deposits of bauxite, iron and manganese ores, kaolin and bentonite.

| Название = The oldest diamondiferous kimberlites and metakimberlites of Kimozer, Karelia in Russia
+
| Название = The life and work of Marianna Borisovna Chistyakova. Devoted to the 90th anniversary of the birth of M.B. Chistyakova, pp. 86-93
| Аннотация =  The history of the formation of the mineral composition of the oldest in Russia kimberlites Kimoser, Karelia is considered. Kimberlites broke through gabbro-dolerites and schungite-bearing sedimentary rocks of the Ludovic (Paleoproterozoic) and contain their xenoliths. All these rocks are tectonized and similarly metamorphosed. The kimberlite minerals are described - phlogopite, chrome spinelides, ilmenite group (heikilite, picroilmenite, Mn ilmenite, pyrophanite), titanomagnetite, apatite, zircon, baddeleyite. The evolution of the composition of chrome spinels and minerals of the ilmenite group is considered, their common feature is the enrichment of Mn. It can be assumed that Kimozero kimberlites arose with the participation of carbonatite melts of high alkalinity. The xenolith metagabbro-dolerites in kimberlites compose albite, clinocoisite, epidote, chlorites, actinolite, prenite, pumpelli (Fe), titanite, quartz, Al kronstedtite, hematite, Mn-Mg ferroaxinite, lennylene peite; these are formations of the prenite-pumpellite facies. The metamorphosed kimberlites of Kimoser are the petrotype of metakimberlites of the prenite-pumpellite facies (PPF). Serpentines (antigorite, relict lysardite), tremolite, actinolite, calcite, dolomite, clinochlorine, magnetite, titanite, corrensite, talcum, apatite, rutile, hematite, ferropepsybrucite, allanite- (Ce), hydroxylbastnose are described - (La), hydroxylparisite- (Ce), hydroxylparisit- (La), bastnesite- (Ce), parisit- (Ce), monazite- (Ce), niobeshinite- (Ce), apatite, zircon, baddeleyite, pentlandite, pyrrhotite , polydimite, zygenite, thorite, bixbyite, relict and late millerite. There are no strontium minerals. Minerals REE metakimberlites - allanite, bastnesite, parisite, monazite, niobeshinite inherited Ce, Ce-La and Ce-La-Nd specificity of magmatic calcite, perovskite and apatite. The boundaries of the crystals of minerals REE and titanite, antigorite, tremolite –inductive surfaces of joint growth. The most common allanite is (Ce). Specificity of metamorphogenic allanite: its crystals are non-zonal, significant variability of REE contents and Fe3 + / Fe2 + ratios in crystals spaced apart by a few tens of microns from each other, compositional diversity: some crystals are selectively Ce, others are rich in La, and in the third, Nd> La. Allanite in clinochlor aggregates is poor in Ti, Cr, and V; in intergrowths with titanite, it contains 1–2 wt.% TiO2, and in contact with ferrichromite, it contains up to 9 wt.% Cr2O3. Most of Kimozer's allanite belongs to the allanite – ferriallanite series (up to 30% of the ferriallanite minal), the smaller part to the allanite – chromallanite series. In subsequent metamorphism processes, allanite was replaced by hydroxylbastnesite and hydroxylparisite or monazite. Germination of bastnesitis and parisitis are common. Monazite (Ce) is extremely poor in Y, P and Th, poor in Nd and enriched in La, usually developed in antigorite metakimberlites. Kimozero metakimberlites contain irregularly shaped non-zircon zircon and baddeleyite up to “diffuse”. These minerals lack Nb, Th, Y, Ti. Metamorphogenic zircon is poor in hafnium and contains 0.5–0.7 wt.% HfO2. A new genetic type is distinguished - metamorphogenic-hydrothermal REE and Zr mineralization in metakimberlites of PPF. The Sm-Nd dating of metakimberlites from the prenite-pumpellite facies reflects the time of their metamorphism, and not the time of kimberlite introduction.

| Название = The exhibition "Minerals of crystal-bearing quartz veins" in the Mineralogical Museum named after A.E. Fersman Russian Academy of Sciences
 
| Аннотация =  The exhibition, created in the museum in 2016 and called “Minerals of crystal-bearing quartz veins”, is built mainly on the material from crystal-bearing deposits of the Subpolar Urals. In this region, 2 types of crystal-bearing veins are currently distinguished. One, known as alpine veins, refers to lateral secretions, the other is hydrothermally metamorphic in nature. The cavities in both types of veins are made of almost the same complex of minerals, consisting almost exclusively of lithophilic elements. The main cavity mineral is quartz; among the minerals associated with it, adularia, albite, carbonates, and titanium-containing minerals are most common: rutile, brookite, anatase, ilmenite, titanite; boron minerals: tourmaline and axinite; epidote, chlorite, etc. All these minerals, represented, as a rule, by perfectly formed crystals, are on display at the exhibition. Particular attention is paid to the ontogeny of quartz crystals. The exhibition shows crystals of various habit, varying degrees of shape distortion, possessing some particular macrostructure (or anatomy). Examples of the importance of studying the ontogeny of minerals for solving genetic problems are given.

New Data on Minerals. Volume 53, 2019

Summary

The periodical journal New Data on Minerals has been published since 1907. The Fersman Mineralogical Museum of Russian Academy of Sciences is its founder. In the last two issues, the Russian mining company ALROSA is the general partner. In the 53rd issue, an attempt was made to renew the historically established tradition of publishing in the journal a summary of the scientific achievements of the employees of the RAS Ministry of Museum. For 2017-2018 Scientific knowledge in the fields of mineralogy and crystallography was significantly expanded, and a significant contribution was made to understanding the processes of mineral formation. The pages of the journal show results on the properties and genesis of minerals and the characteristics of their paragenesis in various, often unique deposits and ore occurrences in Russia and other regions of the world. The current results of a mineralogical study of the Arkhangelsk diamondiferous province, Pamir pegmatites, fumaroles of the Tolbachinsky valley and coal fire sublimates of Ravat, rare-earth mineralization of the Mochalin Log, thallium mineralization of the Vorontsov deposit and finds of Kirkite at the Berezovsky gold ore deposit in the Urals are presented. Brief descriptions of 31 new mineral species are given. The authors presented the results of a study of olivine from magnesian skarns of the Baikal region and the extremely igneous extreme magnesian olivine (Fo> 96) and olivine containing up to 0.48 wt.% P2O5. In olivine of magnesian skarns, a substantial titanium content was first recorded.
The issue presents a series of materials on general approaches and specific methodological developments for presenting the information that mineralogical collections carry. Here, questions of the scientific and general culture of the importance of minerals are highlighted, which allows the reader to look at mineralogical samples as works of art, and compare the expertise of such exhibits with art history, removing it from the plane of a purely scientific and utilitarian assessment.
In addition to scientific and museum articles, you can find a bibliographic sketch about the oldest employee of the Ministry of Museum of the Russian Academy of Sciences M. B. Chistyakova, author of the book “Stone-cutting products in the collection of the Mineralogical Museum named after A.E. Fersman ”, which contains the first detailed description of this unique collection. The reader will find a fascinating story about the Italian instrumental master Antonio Cetti and his mineralogical collection, which later became part of the museum fund. A brief historical review is given on the creation and development of a periodical of the Mineralogical Museum named after A.E. Fersman of the Russian Academy of Sciences from its origins back in 1907 to the present day.
This journal is of interest for mineralogists, geochemists, geologists, staff of natural history museums, collectors, and rocks aficionados.

Pekov I.V. In development of some issues of museum science in the field of mineralogy. I. On the specifics of mineralogical collections, pp. 1-5

The article is devoted to the individual characteristics of mineralogical collections that distinguish them from the collections of other objects of inanimate nature. These features are important for understanding and evaluating the general cultural significance of the mineralogical collections and individual exhibits in them. A wide intraspecific diversity, often often most pronounced precisely in visually defined characteristics, important in the museum-collection aspect, is a striking feature of a large number of minerals. In many cases, when evaluating mineralogical samples, the decisive role is played by their “unmeasured” characteristics, perceived “through feelings”, primarily compositional characteristics. This brings together exhibits of mineralogical collections, which are valued, inter alia, for aesthetic merits, with piece-wise, "non-serial" works of art, and determines, in particular, the need to take into account the "artistic" aspect in assessing the significance of an exhibit of a mineralogical collection, and brings together the expertise of such exhibits from art history, deducing it is from the plane of a purely scientific and utilitarian assessment.
Keywords: mineralogical museum; mineralogical collection; natural science collection; mineralogical sample.



Pekov I.V. In development of some issues of museum science in the field of mineralogy. II. On Different Aspects of the Importance of a Mineralogical Sample, pp. 6-15

The article is devoted to various aspects of the scientific and general cultural significance of the mineral sample, primarily as an exhibit of the mineralogical collection. Various characteristics of the mineralogical specimen are discussed, objective (museum-collection quality, rarity, unusual) and subjective (degree of knowledge, historical value, etc.), criteria for their evaluation and corresponding assessment systems, as well as approaches and specific methodological techniques that can be use in museum work when characterizing the significance of a mineralogical sample and to highlight outstanding exhibits of mineralogical collections. Special attention is paid to the duality of the concept of “rarity of a mineral” and the appropriateness of its definition in the museum business through the total number of authentically diagnosed samples of this mineral present in the collections.
Keywords: Mineralogical Museum; mineralogical collection; mineralogical sample; mineralogical sample quality; the degree of knowledge of the mineralogical sample; the rarity of the mineral.




Pekov I.V. In development of some issues of museum science in the field of mineralogy. III. On the concept of "mineral discovery" in the broad sense and its characteristics, pp. 16-22

The article is devoted to the concept of "finding a mineral" in the broad sense, which is defined as the entire set of samples of this mineral found (collected) at a given mineralogical object (location of the mineral). The issues related to the indicator of museum-collection quality of mineral finds are discussed in most detail, criteria for its evaluation in application to various minerals and corresponding evaluation systems are proposed.
Keywords: Mineralogical Museum; mineralogical collection; geographic information in mineralogy; mineral discovery.



Borisova E.A. Book of MB Chistyakova “Stone-cutting products in the collection of the Fersman Mineralogical Museum of RAS", pp. 23-26

Sandalov F.D., Koshlyakova N.N., Pekov I.V., Yapaskurt V.O., Khanin D.A., Sidorov E.G. Cassiterite from fumarole exhalations of the Tolbachik volcano (Kamchatka): chemical composition and morphogenetic features, pp. 60-70

In the present work, cassiterite of fumarole genesis was first characterized. It was found in the deposits of the active fumarole Arsenatnaya (Second slag cone of the Northern breakthrough of the Great Fissure Tolbachinsky eruption 1975–76, Tolbachinsky dol, Tolbachik volcanic massif, Kamchatka), where it is closely associated with “salt” minerals - sylvin, halite - and alkaline sulfates of the group aphthalitis, as well as with anhydrous arsenates of Ca, Mg, Na, Fe and Cu. Cassiterite here is represented by “fluffy” soft radial-radiant aggregates of fine-needle to hairy crystals in the cavities, which is a consequence of rapid crystallization from the gas phase. It also forms a sagenite lattice on hematite, which was recorded for cassiterite for the first time.
Keywords: cassiterite, tin in hematite, isomorphism, exhalation mineral formation, fumarole, Tolbachik volcano, Kamchatka.

The discovery of native tellurium in sublimates of high-temperature fumaroles in a natural underground coal fire in the tract Kukhi-Malik near the village of Rawat in the Fan-Yagnob coal deposit in the Sogd region of Tajikistan is described. Tellurium is represented by well-formed prismatic crystals (0.1 mm), on which the faces m {10¯10}, ¯e {01¯12}, r {10¯11} are most developed, and a number of unidentified forms are less common with {0001}. In association with tellurium are Fe and K sulfates, Tl and K sulfate, and anglesite. Tellurium crystals are zonal; the central part is enriched in selenium (up to 10 wt.%). The physical properties and main reflections of the X-ray powder diffraction pattern are presented.
Keywords: native tellurium, selenium-containing tellurium, an isomorphic series of selenium - tellurium, minerals of sublimates, fumaroles, coal fire, Tajikistan, Fan-Yagnob deposit, Ravat, Kuhi-Malik.

Mirakov M.A., Pautov L.A., Karpenko V.Yu., Fayziev A.R., Makhmadsharif S Pauflerit β-VO (SO4) in the sublimates of a natural underground fire in the tract Kuhi-Malik (Rawat) at Fan- Yagnob coal deposit, Tajikistan, pp. 114-121

A description of the finding of β-VO (SO4) pauflerite in the sublimates of high-temperature gas emissions from a natural coal fire in the Kukhi-Malik tract near the village of Ravat, Fan-Yagnob coal deposit, Tajikistan, in brecciated siltstones. Pauflerite crystals are elongated-prismatic, measuring 40–100 microns; simple forms: b {010}, m {101} (most developed), e 110}, p {111}, δ {212}. Doubles are observed in (010) (?). The mineral is transparent, green, fragile. Glitter glass. Powflerite is optically biaxial, 2V close to 90º. The dispersion of the optical axes is very weak, v> r. The plane of the optical axes is perpendicular to the elongation of the crystals; np = 1.733 (2), nm = 1.778 (3), ng calc. = 1.823 (4). Pleochroism: by Ng - green color, by Nm and Np - light green. Absorption scheme Ng> Nm> Np. Composition (cf. 3 ann., Electron probe data, wt.%): VO2 49.87, SO3 50.01, amount 99.88. The empirical formula is V0.97O (S1.02O4). The parameters of the rhombic unit cell (Ǻ): a = 7.392 (3), b = 6.272 (2), c = 7.064 (3). For the first time, a powder x-ray and drawings of powderedite crystals are shown. According to the presence of the mineral phases V, Cd, Mo, Tl, Bi, Sn, In, Sb, Se, Te, As, the sublimates of a coal fire at the Fan-Yagnobskoye deposit are close to the sublimates of the volcanic fumaroles of Kamchatka, Kuril, Italy, due to the common extraction mechanisms the gases of these elements from the host rocks, their transfer and deposition in the unloading zones.
