N R070202 - RRUFF Database: Raman, X-ray, Infrared, and Chemistry

Important Update News

The RRUFF Project is being updated to improve its interface and content. The beta version of the update is accessible to the public at RRUFF.net. New data is only being added to the beta site. Please note that it is in development, and some components are not functional. Existing RRUFF.info links will resolve to the new site after RRUFF.net is officially released.

We are grateful to NASA for the funding of this effort.

Clinophosinaite R070202

Name: Clinophosinaite
RRUFF ID: R070202
Ideal Chemistry: Na₃Ca(SiO₃)(PO₄)
Locality: Tsentrainly mine, Rasvumchorr Mt, Khibiny Massif, Kola Peninsula, Murmanskaja Oblast', Northern Region, Russia
Source: Michael Scott S100441 [view label]
Owner: RRUFF
Description: Pale pink massive, associated with red platy lamprophyllite and eudialyte. Note that our a-cell parameter is doubled that reported, and our crystal is twinned by a 2-fold around [100]
Status: The identification of this mineral has been confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction.
