TITLE: Strontianite HS272 DESCRIPT
DOCUMENTATION_FORMAT: MINERAL
SAMPLE_ID: HS272
MINERAL_TYPE: Carbonate
MINERAL: Strontianite (Aragonite group)
FORMULA: SrCO3
FORMULA_HTML: SrCO3
COLLECTION_LOCALITY: Germany
ORIGINAL_DONOR: Hunt and Salisbury Collection
CURRENT_SAMPLE_LOCATION: USGS Denver Spectroscopy Laboratory
ULTIMATE_SAMPLE_LOCATION: USGS Denver Spectroscopy Laboratory
SAMPLE_DESCRIPTION:

XRD_ANALYSIS:
40 kV - 30 mA, 6.5-9.5 keV
File: stron272.out, -.mdi
References: JCPDS #5-418
Found: Strontianite solid solution
Comment: Very intense pattern of well-crystallized phase. The JCPDS
pattern is of synthetic SrCO3. All reflections of HS272 lie at
higher 2 theta values (smaller interplanar spacings) than the endmember
reference pattern, indicating substitution of a cation (such as Ca)
that has a smaller ionic radius than strintium.
