Rinkite, ideally Na 2Ca 4 REETi(Si 2O 7) 2OF 3, is a common mineral in alkaline andperalkaline rocks. The crystal structures of five rinkite crystals from three alkaline massifs: Ilimaussaq, Greenland; Khibiny, Kola Peninsula, Russia andMont Saint-Hilaire, Canada, have been refinedas two components...
