Diffusion of Hydroxylated Si Vacancies in Olivine, and Its Relevance to Si Diffusion
Abstract The diffusion coefficient associated with the 3,612 cm−1 infrared absorbance band in H‐bearing olivine, attributed to a defect involving a vacant Si site balanced by four H+ (i.e., ), was determined in H in‐diffusion experiments at 1200°C–1400°C and 1.5–3.0 GPa in piston‐cylinder and multi‐anvil apparatuses.

Mineralogical and gemological characteristics of Kaman (Kırşehir-Türkiye) fluorites
Fluorites are found in the region between Hamit, Karakütük, Bayındır and Yeniyapan villages of the Kaman District (Kırşehir-Türkiye). Fluorites are located in altered levels due to faults in quartz syenites containing gray-pink colored K-feldspar, plagioclase and quartz, amphibole and biotite type mafic minerals in the Upper Cretaceous aged.

Spectroscopic Study on the Species and Color Differences of Gem‐Quality Red Garnets from Malawi
To reveal the species of gem‐grade red garnets with similar colors, especially the mechanisms underlying their subtle color differences, a series of tests, including conventional gemological tests, X‐ray diffraction, Fourier‐transform infrared spectroscopy, ultraviolet‐visible spectroscopy, and X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy, were performed on gem ...

Abstract Biominerals that accrete shell or skeleton are commonly used as windows to past geochemical environments. Using biominerals as paleoproxies depends on the assumption that biominerals faithfully and predictably record environmental parameters, yet little has been done from a mineralogical perspective to understand how various environmental ...

Gemological Characteristics of Lvwen Stone and Its Color Genesis
“Lvwen stone” is a yellow-green carbonate jade gemstone. In this study, the gemological characteristics and color genesis of Lvwen stone were investigated using conventional gemological testing methods and analytical techniques, such as X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), ultraviolet–visible spectroscopy (UV–VIS ...

Abstract Raman spectroscopy is a convenient, efficient, and non‐destructive technique that could estimate the metamictization degree of zircon, particularly for gem‐class or historical samples. The full width at half maximum value of the ν3(SiO4) band around 1000 cm−1 can classify the structural state of zircon as crystallized (the full width at half ...
