| + | | Аннотация = Timannite HgSe and cinnabar HgS were discovered among the sublimates of underground natural self ignited coal fire in the Kukhi-Malik tract at the Fan-Yagnob deposit of cocking coal near the village of Ravat, Ayni District, Sughd Region of Tajikistan. This is a first find of mercury minerals at that famous and historical occurrence. Timannite and cinnabar occurs as a rash on the surfaces of the burnt argillites along with thin films of Al-Fe sulfates at the fractured zone at the place of unloading of the hot gases from the underground fire. The temperature at the sampling time was not lower than 150 °C. Both minerals form the same crystals where timannite is in the outer zones while cinnabar is located in the central zones. The crystals and their intergrowths are 20–30 mµ across, usually equant. Rarely columnar crystals up to 0.25 mm are found. The crystal forms are: {100}, {111} and {1<span style="text-decoration: overline">1</span>1}. Twins on (111) are observed. The color is dark grey to black, luster is strong semi metallic. In the reflected light timannite is light gray with bluish tint, isotropic with R ~ 30%. Cinnabar is light gray with bluish tint, distinct bireflectance and strong red internal reflections. The electron probe analysis (wt% range timannite/cinnabar) is: Hg 72.94–75.28/83.32–83.99, S 1.29–3.39/12.90–14.38, Se 21.36–24.87/1.44–4.07, total 99.30–101.26/99.43–100.29.

Possible mechanisms of crystallization are discussed. | ||

| + | | Аннотация = The paper presents new data on the finds of jadeite in the Western Caucasus. Microscopic and microprobe studies of jadeite samples from the Bedene serpentinite massif were carried out. It is shown that the mineral contains up to 93% of the jadeite molecule. The geological position of the serpentinite massif, the genesis and thermodynamic stability of jadeite under crustal conditions are considered. It is established that the manifestations of jadeite are associated with zones of high-pressure tectonic melange, which inherit the ancient Paleozoic zones of paleosubduction in the structure of the Fore Ridge of the Greater Caucasus. These zones are characterized by high rates of cooling and exhumation of the material of eclogites and jadeite rocks. The practical significance of the finds of jadeite in the North Caucasus and the prospects for the discovery of new deposits of this precious raw material in the region are discussed. | ||

To the question of restudying mineralogical samples from museum collections. I. General Aspects, p. 38-51
The article is devoted to the problem of re-studying the samples of minerals stored in museum collections. Two main areas of revision of museum material are examined in detail. One of them is the re-study of the originals of the first study of minerals (type specimens), specifically aimed at clarifying the essential characteristics of insufficiently studied mineral species. The second direction covers all other samples stored in museum collections. The results of their restudy can be the discovery of new mineral species or clarification of the characteristics of already known minerals, finds, including the first, of rare minerals in a certain region and, in any case, an increase in the degree of knowledge or reliability of the diagnosis of a particular mineral. The significance of the results of such studies determines the relevance of the restudy of museum material and increases the value of museum collections.
Keywords: restudy, mineral sample, mineralogical museum, museum collection, type specimen.

The first find of mercury minerals - tiemannite and cinnabar in the sublimates of a natural underground fire in the Kuhi-Malik tract at the Fan-Yagnob coal deposit (Tajikistan), p. 96-106
Timannite HgSe and cinnabar HgS were discovered among the sublimates of underground natural self ignited coal fire in the Kukhi-Malik tract at the Fan-Yagnob deposit of cocking coal near the village of Ravat, Ayni District, Sughd Region of Tajikistan. This is a first find of mercury minerals at that famous and historical occurrence. Timannite and cinnabar occurs as a rash on the surfaces of the burnt argillites along with thin films of Al-Fe sulfates at the fractured zone at the place of unloading of the hot gases from the underground fire. The temperature at the sampling time was not lower than 150 °C. Both minerals form the same crystals where timannite is in the outer zones while cinnabar is located in the central zones. The crystals and their intergrowths are 20–30 mµ across, usually equant. Rarely columnar crystals up to 0.25 mm are found. The crystal forms are: {100}, {111} and {111}. Twins on (111) are observed. The color is dark grey to black, luster is strong semi metallic. In the reflected light timannite is light gray with bluish tint, isotropic with R ~ 30%. Cinnabar is light gray with bluish tint, distinct bireflectance and strong red internal reflections. The electron probe analysis (wt% range timannite/cinnabar) is: Hg 72.94–75.28/83.32–83.99, S 1.29–3.39/12.90–14.38, Se 21.36–24.87/1.44–4.07, total 99.30–101.26/99.43–100.29. The powder X-ray diffraction data obtained confirm the presence of both timannite and cinnabar. The crystallization of that kind of minerals directly from the gases is the rare case in nature. Possible mechanisms of crystallization are discussed.
Keywords: timannite, cinnabar, pseudo fumaroles, sublimates, coal fire, Kukhi-Malik, Ravat, Fan-Yagnob coal deposit, Tajikistan.

Jadeite of the Bedene serpentinite massif, Western Caucasus, p. 107-112
The paper presents new data on the finds of jadeite in the Western Caucasus. Microscopic and microprobe studies of jadeite samples from the Bedene serpentinite massif were carried out. It is shown that the mineral contains up to 93% of the jadeite molecule. The geological position of the serpentinite massif, the genesis and thermodynamic stability of jadeite under crustal conditions are considered. It is established that the manifestations of jadeite are associated with zones of high-pressure tectonic melange, which inherit the ancient Paleozoic zones of paleosubduction in the structure of the Fore Ridge of the Greater Caucasus. These zones are characterized by high rates of cooling and exhumation of the material of eclogites and jadeite rocks. The practical significance of the finds of jadeite in the North Caucasus and the prospects for the discovery of new deposits of this precious raw material in the region are discussed.
Keywords: jadeite, North Caucasus, Bedene massif, serpentinites, eclogites.
