Dear Armel,
obviously the structure of bazhenovite is unknown (although bright
orange to yellow, tabular xls up to 5 mm were reported).
The mineral is said to be the monoclinic analog of the synthetic
rhombic compound CaS5.CaS2O3.6Ca(OH)2.20H2O (Lutz, H. D.
et al, 1969).
I don't know
Hello,
Any opinion of the eminent mineralogists members
of this mailing list welcome about bazhenovite (ICDD-JCPDS
card No 42-1361 and 22-0154) Ca8S5(S2O3)(OH)12.(H2O)20
Is the structure determined ?
If not, are the cell and space group dubious or not ?
Anyway, is the compound stable in air
