Summary

This volume contains articles on new mineral species and new finds of rare minerals, among them – Nalivkinite, a new mineral of the astrophyllite group; new finds of Dzhalindite, Mo-bearing Stolzite and Greenockite in ores of the Budgaya, Eastern Transbaikalia; new finds of black Powellite in molybdenum-uranium deposit of Southern Kazakhstan. Corundum-bearing Pegmatite from the Khibiny massif and Columbite-Tantalite group minerals of raremetal tantalum-bearing amazonite-albite granites from Eastern Transbaikalia and Southern Kazakhstan are described. There is also an article on mineralogical and geochemical features of uranium ores from Southeastern Transbaikalia deposits. New data on titanium-rich Biotite and on polymorphs of anhydrous dicalcium orthosilicate are published.
“Mineralogical Museums and Collections” section contains articles on collections and exhibits of Fersman Mineralogical Museum RAS: on the collection of mining engineer I.N. Kryzhanovsky; on Faberge Eggs from the funds of this museum (including a describing of symbols on the box with these eggs); on the exhibition devoted to A.E. Fersman’s 125th anniversary and to 80 years of the first edition of his famous book “Amuzing Mineralogy” and the review of Fersman Mineralogical Museum acquisitions in 2006–2008. This section includes also some examples from the history of discovery of national deposits by collection’s specimens. In “Personalities” section there is article on A.E. Fersman’s Uralian expeditions and on his role in the organization of the Ilmeny State Reserve; arcticle on the life and the activity of Professor G.P. Barsanov, the director of the Fersman Mineralogical Museum in 1952–1976. “Mineralogical Notes” section is devoted to Fe-dominant Bogdanovite from cementation zone of the Aginsky goldtelluride deposit, Kamchatka; and on the find of Mackinawite inclusions in grossular at the Talnakh Achtarandite locality.
In “Discussions” section there is a paper on problems of species formation in mineralogy where minerals of variable composition and with variable structure are discussed on the example of eudialyte-eucolites. The volume is interesting for mineralogists, geochemists, geologists, collaborators of Natural History museums, collectors and minerals-amateurs.
