Summary
This volume contains description of laptevite-(Ce), a new vicanite group mineral found in the Darai-Pioz alkaline massif, rare minerals of the baratovite-katayamalite solid solution from the Khodzha-Achkan alkaline massif in Kirgizia, listvenite-like phlogopite-magnesite gumbeites of the Berezovsky gold deposit in the Urals, polycrystalline diamond aggregates from the Lomonosov deposit in the Arkhangelsk diamond province, and gypsum segregations from the bottom of the Okhotsk and Japan Seas. The results of fine investigation of trace elements in the crystal structure of molybdenite and experimental modeling of Pt and Pd sulfide crystallization during cooling
in the central part of the Cu-Fe-S system are given.
Separate section is devoted to 150th anniversary of the birth of V.I. Vernadsky. It contains papers about geochemical mineralogy of V.I. Vernadsky, his activity in nuclear power, and mineralogical taxonomies suggested by
V.I. Vernadsky, J.D. Dana, A.G. Betekhtin, I.N. Kostov, G.P. Barsanov, and A.A. Godovikov.
In the section Mineralogical Museums and Collections, the first information on products of Chinese stone-cut art
in the collection of the Fersman Mineralogical Museum, Russian Academy of Sciences, brief historical review of the
collection of diamond crystals of the same museum, and detail information on the new acquisitions in the museum
in 2011–2012 are given.
Mineralogical Notes are represented by brief paper about findings of giant minerals in the South Urals.
This journal is of interest for mineralogists, geochemists, geologists, staff of natural history museums, collectors, and amateurs of stones.

Laptevite-(Ce) NaFe2+(REE7Ca5Y3)(SiO4)4(Si3B2PO18)(BO3)F11–new mineral of the vicanite group from the Darai-Pioz alkaline massif, Tajikistan, p. 5 - 11
Laptevite-(Ce) is a new mineral of the vicanite group. It was found in a calcite-bafertisite-aegirine-microcline rock in association with stillwellite-(Ce), calcibeborosilite-(Y), fluorite, polylithionite and other minerals at the Darai-Pioz glacier moraine (Tajikistan). Color is dark-brown, in thin plates is transparent. Vitreous luster. It occurs as poorly formed crystals up to 1 cm in size. Mohs’ hardness 4.5–5. Dmeas.=4.61(2)g/cm3, Dcalc.=4.619 g/cm3. Optically uniaxial negative, no=1.741(3), ne=1.720(3). It is partially metamict. Crystal structure has been refined with R = 3.61%. Hexagonal symmetry, space group R3m, a=10.804(2)Å; b=10.804(2)Å; c=27.726(6)Å; V=2802.7(2)Å3, Z=3. Most intense X-ray powder data lines are as follows [d, (I), (hkl)]: 7.70 (19) (012); 4.41 (29) (202); 3.13 (26) (214); 3.03 (100) (027); 2.982 (85) (125); 2.954 (60) (033); 2.689 (40) (-240); 1.979 (31) (330); 1.770 (21) (-555). IR spectrum (strongest absorption bands, cm–1) 1623, 1437, 1300, 945, 930, 877, 758, 637, 570, 531. Chemical composition (microprobe analysis, wt.%): SiO2 – 15.67, TiO2 – 0.28, ZrO2 – 0.01, ThO2 – 0.38, UO2– 0.65, FeO – 1.48, CaO –11.64, MnO – 1.02, SrO – 0.95, Y2O3 – 11.30, La2O3 – 14.51, Ce2O3 – 16.93, Pr2O3 – 2.76, Nd2O3 – 5.16, Sm2O3 – 0.98, Eu2O3 – 0.10, Gd2O3 – 1.56, Tb2O3 – 0.29, Dy2O3 – 1.37, Tm2O3 – 0.17, Yb2O3, – 0.28, B2O3 – 4.98, P2O5 – 1.51, Na2O – 1.05, F – 8.53, –O=F2 – 3.59, total – 100.46. The simplified formula is NaFe2+(REE7Ca5Y3) (SiO4)4(Si3B2PO18)(BO3)F11. The mineral is named in honor of Tatyana Mikhaylovna Lapteva (1928–2011), the Soviet geologist, petrographer, who made a major contribution to geological study of Central Asia. читать далее...
