New Data on Minerals. Volume 53, 2019

Summary

The periodical journal New Data on Minerals has been published since 1907. The Fersman Mineralogical Museum of Russian Academy of Sciences is its founder. In the last two issues, the Russian mining company ALROSA is the general partner. In the 53rd issue, an attempt was made to renew the historically established tradition of publishing in the journal a summary of the scientific achievements of the employees of the RAS Ministry of Museum. For 2017-2018 Scientific knowledge in the fields of mineralogy and crystallography was significantly expanded, and a significant contribution was made to understanding the processes of mineral formation. The pages of the journal show results on the properties and genesis of minerals and the characteristics of their paragenesis in various, often unique deposits and ore occurrences in Russia and other regions of the world. The current results of a mineralogical study of the Arkhangelsk diamondiferous province, Pamir pegmatites, fumaroles of the Tolbachinsky valley and coal fire sublimates of Ravat, rare-earth mineralization of the Mochalin Log, thallium mineralization of the Vorontsov deposit and finds of Kirkite at the Berezovsky gold ore deposit in the Urals are presented. Brief descriptions of 31 new mineral species are given. The authors presented the results of a study of olivine from magnesian skarns of the Baikal region and the extremely igneous extreme magnesian olivine (Fo> 96) and olivine containing up to 0.48 wt.% P2O5. In olivine of magnesian skarns, a substantial titanium content was first recorded.
The issue presents a series of materials on general approaches and specific methodological developments for presenting the information that mineralogical collections carry. Here, questions of the scientific and general culture of the importance of minerals are highlighted, which allows the reader to look at mineralogical samples as works of art, and compare the expertise of such exhibits with art history, removing it from the plane of a purely scientific and utilitarian assessment.
In addition to scientific and museum articles, you can find a bibliographic sketch about the oldest employee of the Ministry of Museum of the Russian Academy of Sciences M. B. Chistyakova, author of the book “Stone-cutting products in the collection of the Mineralogical Museum named after A.E. Fersman ”, which contains the first detailed description of this unique collection. The reader will find a fascinating story about the Italian instrumental master Antonio Cetti and his mineralogical collection, which later became part of the museum fund. A brief historical review is given on the creation and development of a periodical of the Mineralogical Museum named after A.E. Fersman of the Russian Academy of Sciences from its origins back in 1907 to the present day.
This journal is of interest for mineralogists, geochemists, geologists, staff of natural history museums, collectors, and rocks aficionados.

Pekov I.V. In development of some issues of museum science in the field of mineralogy. I. On the specifics of mineralogical collections, pp. 1-5

The article is devoted to the individual characteristics of mineralogical collections that distinguish them from the collections of other objects of inanimate nature. These features are important for understanding and evaluating the general cultural significance of the mineralogical collections and individual exhibits in them. A wide intraspecific diversity, often often most pronounced precisely in visually defined characteristics, important in the museum-collection aspect, is a striking feature of a large number of minerals. In many cases, when evaluating mineralogical samples, the decisive role is played by their “unmeasured” characteristics, perceived “through feelings”, primarily compositional characteristics. This brings together exhibits of mineralogical collections, which are valued, inter alia, for aesthetic merits, with piece-wise, "non-serial" works of art, and determines, in particular, the need to take into account the "artistic" aspect in assessing the significance of an exhibit of a mineralogical collection, and brings together the expertise of such exhibits from art history, deducing it is from the plane of a purely scientific and utilitarian assessment.
Keywords: mineralogical museum; mineralogical collection; natural science collection; mineralogical sample.

Pekov I.V. In development of some issues of museum science in the field of mineralogy. II. On Different Aspects of the Importance of a Mineralogical Sample, pp. 6-15

The article is devoted to various aspects of the scientific and general cultural significance of the mineral sample, primarily as an exhibit of the mineralogical collection. Various characteristics of the mineralogical specimen are discussed, objective (museum-collection quality, rarity, unusual) and subjective (degree of knowledge, historical value, etc.), criteria for their evaluation and corresponding assessment systems, as well as approaches and specific methodological techniques that can be use in museum work when characterizing the significance of a mineralogical sample and to highlight outstanding exhibits of mineralogical collections. Special attention is paid to the duality of the concept of “rarity of a mineral” and the appropriateness of its definition in the museum business through the total number of authentically diagnosed samples of this mineral present in the collections.
Keywords: Mineralogical Museum; mineralogical collection; mineralogical sample; mineralogical sample quality; the degree of knowledge of the mineralogical sample; the rarity of the mineral.

Pekov I.V. In development of some issues of museum science in the field of mineralogy. III. On the concept of "mineral discovery" in the broad sense and its characteristics, pp. 16-22

Sandalov F.D., Koshlyakova N.N., Pekov I.V., Yapaskurt V.O., Khanin D.A., Sidorov E.G. Cassiterite from fumarole exhalations of the Tolbachik volcano (Kamchatka): chemical composition and morphogenetic features, pp. 60-70

In the present work, cassiterite of fumarole genesis was first characterized. It was found in the deposits of the active fumarole Arsenatnaya (Second slag cone of the Northern breakthrough of the Great Fissure Tolbachinsky eruption 1975–76, Tolbachinsky dol, Tolbachik volcanic massif, Kamchatka), where it is closely associated with “salt” minerals - sylvin, halite - and alkaline sulfates of the group aphthalitis, as well as with anhydrous arsenates of Ca, Mg, Na, Fe and Cu. Cassiterite here is represented by “fluffy” soft radial-radiant aggregates of fine-needle to hairy crystals in the cavities, which is a consequence of rapid crystallization from the gas phase. It also forms a sagenite lattice on hematite, which was recorded for cassiterite for the first time.
