X-Ray and Optical Data for a Rare Earth–Poor Eudialyte from the North–Central Alaska Range

Abstract Powder X-ray and optical data have been recorded for a sample of exceptionally rare earth-poor eudialyte (Na 12 (Ca, REE) 6 (Fe 2+ ,Mn,Mg) 3 Zr 3 (Zr,Nb) x [Si 9 O 27−y (OH) y ] 2 [Si 3 O 9 ] 2 (C1,F) z , with x = 0. 1–0.9, y = 1–3 and z = 0.7–1.4) from a pegmatitic vein associated with the...

description Abstract Powder X-ray and optical data have been recorded for a sample of exceptionally rare earth-poor eudialyte (Na 12 (Ca, REE) 6 (Fe 2+ ,Mn,Mg) 3 Zr 3 (Zr,Nb) x [Si 9 O 27−y (OH) y ] 2 [Si 3 O 9 ] 2 (C1,F) z , with x = 0. 1–0.9, y = 1–3 and z = 0.7–1.4) from a pegmatitic vein associated with the peralkaline Windy Fork granite in the north–central Alaska range. The eudialyte is uniaxial positive with ω = 1.6062(2), ε = 1.6138 (3) and microprobe analyses indicate that the sum of REE + Yis less than 0.1 weight percent. Refined unit cell dimensions are: a = 14.2572(4), c = 30.1338(27), D x = 2.67, F 30 = 128 (0.006, 42), M 20 = 76. An indexed powder diffraction pattern is given.
