EVOLUTION OF CHEMICAL COMPOSITION AND CRYSTAL MORPHOLOGY OF AEGIRIN DURING FORMATION OF THE VISHNEVOGORSK ALKALINE CARBONATITE COMPLEX (SOUTH URALS) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The chemical composition and crystal morphology of aegirine changed during formation of the Vishnevogorsk alkaline carbonatite complex. Fenitization of host metamorphic rocks, early vein syenites and pegmatites resulted in crystallization of pyroxenes ...

CANCRINITE-GROUP MINERALS AT NON-AMBIENT CONDITIONS: A MODEL OF THE ELASTIC BEHAVIOR AND STRUCTURE EVOLUTION [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The minerals of the cancrinite group are zeolite-like compounds, sharing the [CAN]-topology of the framework. Their structure shows large 12-ring channels along [0001], bound by columns of cages, the so-called can units.
