TITLE: Tourmaline HS282 DESCRIPT
DOCUMENTATION_FORMAT: MINERAL
SAMPLE_ID: HS282
MINERAL_TYPE: Cyclosilicate
MINERAL: Tourmaline (Tourmaline group)
FORMULA: (Na,Ca)(Li,Mg,Al)(Al,Fe,Mn)6(BO3)3(Si6O18)(OH)4
FORMULA_HTML: (Na,Ca)(Li,Mg,Al)(Al,Fe,Mn)6(BO3)3(Si6O18)(OH)4

CURRENT_SAMPLE_LOCATION: USGS Denver Spectroscopy Laboratory
ULTIMATE_SAMPLE_LOCATION: USGS Denver Spectroscopy Laboratory
SAMPLE_DESCRIPTION:
This sample is brown. The spectrum shows intense features near 0.75 µ and 1.1 µ, due to transitions in ferric and ferrous iron, respectively, and features in the 1.4 and 2.2 to 2.4 µ region.
Sieve interval 74 - 250µm.
