The crystal structure and site preference of Co2+ in a synthetic Co1.10Mg0.90SiO4 olivine have been determined from single crystal X-ray diffraction data collected on an automatic diffractometer. The R factor is 0.044 for 612 reflections. The site occupancies are: Ml site: Co 0.730±0.006; Mg 0.270; M2 site: Co 0.370, Mg 0.630. The Gibbs free energy change, ΔG° for the ion-exchange reaction between M1 and M2 sites is ?4.06 kcals/mole, assuming ideal mixing at each set of sites. This energy may be called ‘site preference energy’ of Co2+ in olivine. The strong preference of Co2+ for the M1 site can be quantitatively explained by two competing forces: preference of ions larger than Mg2+ for the M2 site and stronger covalent bonding of transition metal ions at the M1 site. For Fe2+, Mg2+, these two effects nearly neutralize each other, explaining the lack of considerable cation-ordering in Fe-Mg olivines.  相似文献

A single-crystal sample of galenobismutite was subjected to hydrostatic pressures in the range of 0.0001 and 9 GPa at room temperature using the diamond-anvil cell technique. A series of X-ray diffraction intensities were collected at ten distinct pressures using a CCD equipped 4-circle diffractometer. The crystal structure was refined to R1(|F0| > 4σ) values of approximately 0.05 at all pressures. By fitting a third-order Birch-Murnaghan equation of state to the unit-cell volumes V 0 = 700.6(2) Å3, K 0 = 43.9(7) GPa and dK/dP = 6.9(3) could be determined for the lattice compression. Both types of cations in galenobismutite have stereochemically active lone electron pairs, which distort the cation polyhedra at room pressure. The cation eccentricities decrease at higher pressure but are still pronounced at 9 GPa. Galenobismutite is isotypic with CaFe2O4 (CF) but moves away from the idealised CF-type structure during compression. Instead of the two octahedral cation sites and one bi-capped trigonal-prismatic site, PbBi2S4 attains a new high-pressure structure characterised by one octahedral site and two mono-capped trigonal-prismatic sites. Analyses of the crystal structure at high pressure confirm the preference of Bi for the octahedral site and the smaller one of the two trigonal-prismatic sites.  相似文献

 The adsorption of alkali metal cations on a hydroxylated corundum surface was investigated using high-level electronic structure calculations, with both cluster Hartree–Fock and periodic density-functional theory approaches. The work concentrates on the structural aspects of binding sites with threefold oxygen coordination at the basal (0001) surface. It was found that adsorption at different sites can give rise to a wide range of adsorption energies, which strongly depends on the freedom of surface hydrogen atoms to adjust their positions. Alkali metal adions from Li+ to Cs+ were studied with the cluster method, periodic plane-wave pseudopotential calculations being carried out for K+ adsorption to validate the cluster results. A site above an octahedral interstice was found to be the least preferred for cation adsorption, despite having the lowest repulsion from surface aluminium atoms. The strongest adsorption was found over an aluminium atom in the second layer, because the hydroxyl groups could reorient towards the neighbouring octahedral interstices, and hence significantly decrease repulsion with the cation. The adsorption energy and the first three interlayer spacings parallel to the basal surface change systematically with ionic size for each adsorption site. Many of these trends extend to adsorption of Ca2+, Co2+ and Pb2+, which were also investigated, although a redistribution of 3d electrons in Co2+ results in strong adsorption even at an unfavourable site. The results suggest that it may be possible not only to predict adsorption behaviour for a wide range of elements, but also to use experimental measurements of interplanar separations to gain information about contaminated surfaces.

The Co,?Mg-cation ordering in the Mg2SiO4–Co2SiO4 solid solution series as a function of the chemical composition has been studied by X-ray powder diffraction methods. The structures of nine polycrystalline samples prepared at 1200?°C and equally cooled to room temperature within 2 minutes have been refined by the Rietveld technique. The results corroborate earlier studies showing a strong preference of Co2+ for the M1 site. Considering the agreement of the powder diffraction results with those of single crystal studies allows the conclusion that the powder method is well suited for investigating the cation distribution in compounds exhibiting significant ordering effects. According to the cation distributions derived from first rapid quench experiments, the cation order of the slowly cooled samples corresponds to an estimated equilibrium temperature of 800?°C.  相似文献

Ni, Co, and Zn are widely distributed in the Earth’s mantle as significant minor elements that may offer insights into the chemistry of melting in the mantle. To better understand the distribution of Ni2+, Co2+, and Zn2+ in the most abundant silicate phases in the transition zone and the upper mantle, we have analyzed the crystal chemistry of wadsleyite (Mg2SiO4), ringwoodite (Mg2SiO4), forsterite (Mg2SiO4), and clinoenstatite (Mg2Si2O6) synthesized at 12–20 GPa and 1200–1400 °C with 1.5–3 wt% of either NiO, CoO, or ZnO in starting materials. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses demonstrate that significant amounts of Ni, Co, and Zn are incorporated in octahedral sites in wadsleyite (up to 7.1 at%), ringwoodite (up to 11.3 at%), olivine (up to 2.0 at%), and clinoenstatite (up to 3.2 at%). Crystal structure refinements indicate that crystal field stabilization energy (CFSE) controls both cation ordering and transition metal partitioning in coexisting minerals. According to electron microprobe analyses, Ni and Co partition preferentially into forsterite and wadsleyite relative to coexisting clinoenstatite. Ni strongly prefers ringwoodite over coexisting wadsleyite with \({D}_{\text{Ni}}^{\text{Rw}/\text{Wd}}\)?=?4.13. Due to decreasing metal–oxygen distances with rising pressure, crystal field effect on distribution of divalent metal ions in magnesium silicates is more critical in the transition zone relative to the upper mantle. Analyses of Ni partitioning between the major upper-mantle phases implies that Ni-rich olivine in ultramafic rocks can be indicative of near-primary magmas.  相似文献

The thermal expansion, structural changes and the site partitioning of Co and Mg in synthetic CoMgSiO4 olivine have been studied by in situ time-of-flight neutron powder diffraction as a function of temperature, between 25 and 1,000°C. Thermal expansion of the unit cell dimensions and volume are linear within this temperature range and give no indications of a phase transition, although the thermoelastic behaviour indicates a slight strain minimum around 700°C. Co2+ shows a strong preference for the M1 site throughout this temperature range with an oscillatory behaviour; it decreases slightly at about 300°C, climbing up to nearly its original value at around 800°C and then decreasing by about 30% at 1,000°C. This behaviour is in contrast with that of (Fe, Mg)2SiO4 olivine, in which the initial Fe2+ site preference for the M1 site switches to the M2 site beyond a cross-over temperature. The oscillatory site preference in (CoMg)-olivine as a function of temperature is reflected in the M–O polyhedral volume changes and M–O bond lengths, as well as, thermoelastic strain and atomic thermal displacement parameters. The imbalance between the increasing vibrational and decreasing configurational entropy contributions, together with covalent bonding effects rather than crystal field contributions, seem to drive the cation partitioning in (CoMg)-olivine.  相似文献

Using a diamond-anvil cell and synchrotron X-ray diffraction, the compressional behavior of a synthetic qandilite Mg2.00(1)Ti1.00(1)O4 has been investigated up to about 14.9 GPa at 300 K. The pressure–volume data fitted to the third-order Birch–Murnaghan equation of state yield an isothermal bulk modulus (K T0) of 175(5) GPa, with its first derivative \(K_{T0}^{{\prime }}\) attaining 3.5(7). If \(K_{T0}^{{\prime }}\) is fixed as 4, the K T0 value is 172(1) GPa. This value is substantially larger than the value of the adiabatic bulk modulus (K S0) previously determined by an ultrasonic pulse echo method (152(7) GPa; Liebermann et al. in Geophys J Int 50:553–586, 1977), but in general agreement with the K T0 empirically estimated on the basis of crystal chemical systematics (169 GPa; Hazen and Yang in Am Miner 84:1956–1960, 1999). Compared to the K T0 values of the ulvöspinel (Fe2TiO4; ~148(4) GPa with \(K_{T0}^{{\prime }} = 4\)) and the ringwoodite solid solutions along the Mg2SiO4–Fe2SiO4 join, our finding suggests that the substitution of Mg2+ for Fe2+ on the T sites of the 4–2 spinels can have more significant effect on the K T0 than that on the M sites.  相似文献

Fifteen samples of (Mg,Fe)SiO3 majorite with varying Fe/Mg composition and one sample of (Mg,Fe)(Si,Al)O3 majorite were synthesized at high pressure and temperature under different conditions of oxygen fugacity using a multianvil press, and examined ex situ using X-ray diffraction and Mössbauer and optical absorption spectroscopy. The relative concentration of Fe3+ increases both with total iron content and increasing oxygen fugacity, but not with Al concentration. Optical absorption spectra indicate the presence of Fe2+–Fe3+ charge transfer, where band intensity increases with increasing Fe3+ concentration. Mössbauer data were used in conjunction with electron microprobe analyses to determine the site distribution of all cations. Both Al and Fe3+ substitute on the octahedral site, and charge balance occurs through the removal of Si. The degree of Mg/Si ordering on the octahedral sites in (Mg,Fe)SiO3 majorite, which affects both the c/a ratio and the unit cell volume, is influenced by the thermal history of the sample. The Fe3+ concentration of (Mg,Fe)(Si,Al)O3 majorite in the mantle will reflect prevailing redox conditions, which are believed to be relatively reducing in the transition zone. Exchange of material across the transition boundary to (Mg,Fe) (Si,Al)O3 perovskite would then require a mechanism to oxidize sufficient iron to satisfy crystal-chemical requirements of the lower-mantle perovskite phase.  相似文献

Crystallographic determinations on natural olivine single crystals of mantle composition and origin, carried out by in situ neutron diffraction at high temperature, show that the octahedrally co-ordinated Fe2+ and Mg cations undergo two successive trends of cation ordering with increasing temperature. An initial slight preference of Fe2+ for site M1, up to a temperature of about 850?°C, is followed by a reverse-ordering reaction with a site preference exchange between the two cations. The cross-over between the two regimes of ordering, corresponding to a situation of complete disorder, occurs at about 900?°C. Above this temperature Fe2+ progressively and strongly segregates into site M2 up to 1300?°C, the practical limit of the experimental setup utilized in the experiments. Care was taken to ensure that no chemical changes occurred in the crystals (i.e. oxidation), as testified by Mössbauer spectroscopy determinations carried out before and after the heat treatment. The cation-ordering behaviour is reflected in temperature-dependent changes of geometrical and atomic displacement parameters occurring in the octahedral sites M1 and M2. A thermodynamical explanation of this behaviour is proposed in terms of a prevailing vibrational contribution to entropy.  相似文献

Static lattice energy calculations (SLEC), based on empirical interatomic potentials, have been performed for a set of 800 different structures in a 2 × 2 × 4 supercell of C2/c diopside with compositions between diopside and jadeite, and with different states of order of the exchangeable Na/Ca and Mg/Al cations. Excess static energies of these structures have been cluster expanded in a basis set of 37 pair-interaction parameters. These parameters have been used to constrain Monte Carlo simulations of temperature-dependent properties in the range of 273–2,023 K and to calculate a temperature–composition phase diagram. The simulations predict the order–disorder transition in omphacite at 1,150 ± 20°C in good agreement with the experimental data of Carpenter (Mineral Petrol 78:433–440, 1981). The stronger ordering of Mg/Al within the M1 site than of Ca/Na in the M2 site is attributed to the shorter M1–M1 nearest-neighbor distance, and, consequently, the stronger ordering force. The comparison of the simulated relationship between the order parameters corresponding to M1 and M2 sites with the X-ray refinement data on natural omphacites (Boffa Ballaran et al. in Am Mineral 83:419–433, 1998) suggests that the cation ordering becomes kinetically ineffective at about 600°C.  相似文献

The partitioning of Fe and Mn between the large M(4) site and the octahedral sites, M(1,2,3) in the amphibole structure has been investigated in two natural manganogrunerites of compositions Ca0.1Mn1.9 Mg1.25Fe2+ 3.56Fe3+ 0.38Si7.81O22(OH)2 and Ca0.24Mn1.57 Mg2.27 Fe2+ 2.76Fe3+ 0.32Si7.84O22(OH)2. The long-range cation distribution in the two samples has been elucidated by in situ neutron powder diffraction revealing that Mn is preferentially ordered onto M(4) ? M(2) >M(1) >M(3) in both samples. Partitioning of Mn from M(4) into the octahedral sites begins at 350 °C, with site exchange energies of ?16.6 kJ mol?1 and ?14.9 kJ mol?1, in samples containing 1.90 and 1.57 Mn apfu, respectively. Mössbauer and infrared spectroscopy have been used to study the samples at room temperature, and Mössbauer data agree well with the diffraction results, confirming that high-temperature cation distributions are retained during cooling. The fine structure in the hydroxyl-stretching region of the IR absorption spectra has been used to discuss qualitatively the site occupancies of the coordinating M(1)M(3)M(1) triplet, linked by O(3). On the basis of such modelling, we conclude that a degree of local clustering is present in both samples.  相似文献

A simple ionic model which describes the solution of the forsterite component of olivine in silicate liquids is reported. The melting relation is represented: (Mg2SiO4)ol = 2(Mg2+)L + (SiO44?L and is extended to all silicate liquids by normalizing their compositions to 4 oxygens. At 1 bar, the temperature at which olivine is in equilibrium with any alkali-depleted basaltic composition can be calculated to within ±30°C. This error is increased considerably when applied to terrestrial basalts which contain several weight percent alkalis. Alkalis interfere with the equilibrium by generating strongly repulsive interionic forces which can be crudely modelled in a manner consistent with constraints imposed by regular solution theory.The model quantifies the reduced activity of SiO44? monomers due to increasing SiO2 concentrations in the melt. This is a consequence of polymerization which does not appear to operate gradually over the entire spectrum of mafic and ultramafic compositions. The coordination of alumina in melts which precipitate olivine only appears to be dominantly octahedral. Titanium acts as a polymerizing agent by interconnecting previously isolated SiO44? monomers. Calcium associated with normative diopside tends to exhibit small but perceptible repulsive forces involving Mg2+.  相似文献

 Recently, the Hy-2a hydrous olivine (MgH2 SiO4)·3(Mg2SiO4) occurring as nanometre-sized inclusions in mantle olivines has been found by TEM, and has been suggested to be a new DHMS phase (Khisina et al. 2001). A model of the crystal structure of Hy-2a has been proposed as a 2a-superstructure of olivine with one Me2+ -vacant octahedral layer in the (1 0 0) plane per Hy-2a unit cell (Khisina and Wirth 2002). In the present study the crystal structure of Hy-2a hydrous olivine is optimized by ab initio calculations. The aims of this study are: (1) verification of the suggested models of Hy-2a hydrous olivine structure; (2) calculation of the most stable configurations for Hy-2a structure with minimum static lattice energy, by assuming a possible formation of Me2+ vacancies in either M1 or M2 octahedral sites; (3) determination of the position of protons and hydrogen bonds in the Hy-2a structure. Several different possible configurations of the Hy-2a structure are optimized. The results support the idea of a stable olivine structure with ordered planar-segregated OH-bearing defects oriented parallel to (1 0 0). The data obtained indicate a preferred stability of the Hy-2a structure with the protons associated with M1 vacancies and bonded with O1 and O2 oxygen sites. The relative energy values of the optimized Hy-2a structure configurations correlate as a rule with the average shifts of atoms from their positions in pure forsterite structure.

 This paper presents an improved generalisation of cation distribution determination based on an accurate fit of all crystal-chemical parameters. Cations are assigned to the tetrahedral and octahedral sites of the structure according to their scattering power and a set of bond distances optimised for spinel structure. A database of 295 spinels was prepared from the literature and unpublished data. Selected compositions include the following cations: Mg2+, Al3+, Si4+, Ti4+, V3+, Cr3+, Mn2+, Mn3+, Fe2+, Fe3+, Co2+, Ni2+, Zn2+ and vacancies. Bond distance optimisation reveals a definite lengthening in tetrahedral distance when large amounts of Fe3+ or Ni2+ are present in the octahedral site. This means that these cations modify the octahedral angle and hence the shared octahedral edge, causing an increase in the tetrahedral distance with respect to the size of the cations entering it. Some applications to published data are discussed, showing the capacity and limitations of the method for calculating cation distribution, and for identifying inconsistencies and inaccuracies in experimental data.

The intra-crystalline cation partitioning over T- and M-sites in a synthetic Mg(Fe,Al)2O4 spinel sample has been determined as a function of temperature by Rietveld structure refinements from powder diffraction data, combining in situ high-temperature neutron powder diffraction (NPD; POLARIS diffractometer, at ISIS, Rutherford Appleton Laboratory, UK), to determine the Mg and Al occupancy factors, with in situ high-temperature X-ray powder diffraction, to fix the Fe3+ distribution. The results obtained agree with a two-stage reaction, in which an initial exchange between Fe3+ and Mg, the former leaving and the latter entering tetrahedral sites, is successively followed by a rearrangement involving also Al. The measured cation distribution has then been compared and discussed with that calculated by the Maximum Configuration Entropy principle, for which only NPD patterns have been used. The cation partitioning has finally been interpreted in the light of the configuration model of O’Neill and Navrotsky.  相似文献

Analyses of 72 samples from Upper Panjhara basin in the northern part of Deccan Plateau, India, indicate that geochemical incongruity of groundwater is largely a function of mineral composition of the basaltic lithology. Higher proportion of alkaline earth elements to total cations and HCO3>Cl + SO4 reflect weathering of primary silicates as chief source of ions. Inputs of Cl, SO4, and NO3 are related to rainfall and localized anthropogenic factors. Groundwater from recharge area representing Ca + Mg–HCO3 type progressively evolves to Ca + Na–HCO3 and Na–Ca–HCO3 class along flow direction replicates the role of cation exchange and precipitation processes. While the post-monsoon chemistry is controlled by silicate mineral dissolution + cation exchange reactions, pre-monsoon variability is attributable chiefly to precipitation reactions + anthropogenic factors. Positive correlations between Mg vs HCO3 and Ca + Mg vs HCO3 supports selective dissolution of olivine and pyroxene as dominant process in post-monsoon followed by dissolution of plagioclase feldspar and secondary carbonates. The pre-monsoon data however, points toward the dissolution of plagioclase and precipitation of CaCO3 supported by improved correlation coefficients between Na + Ca vs HCO3 and negative correlation of Ca vs HCO3, respectively. It is proposed that the eccentricity in the composition of groundwater from the Panjhara basin is a function of selective dissolution of olivine > pyroxene followed by plagioclase feldspar. The data suggest siallitization (L < R and R k) as dominant mechanism of chemical weathering of basalts, stimulating monosiallitic (kaolinite) and bisiallitic (montmorillonite) products. The chemical denudation rates for Panjhara basin worked out separately for the ground and surface water component range from 6.98 to 36.65 tons/km2/yr, respectively. The values of the CO2 consumption rates range between 0.18 × 106 mol//km2/yr (groundwater) and 0.9 × 106 mol/km2/yr (surface water), which indicates that the groundwater forms a considerable fraction of CO2 consumption, an inference, that is, not taken into contemplation in most of the studies.  相似文献

High-resolution core level and valence band (VB) X-ray photoelectron spectra (XPS) of olivine [(Mg0.87Fe0.13)2SiO4], bronzite [(Mg0.8Fe0.2)2Si2O6] and diopside [Ca(Mg0.8Fe0.2)Si2O6] were collected before and after leaching in pH ∼2 solutions with the Kratos magnetic confinement charge compensation system which minimizes differential charge broadening. The leached samples yield Si 2p, Mg 2p, Ca 2p and O 1s XPS spectral linewidths and lineshapes similar to those collected from the respective pristine samples prior to leaching. As with previous XPS studies on crushed samples, our broadscan XPS spectra show evidence for initial, preferential leaching of cations (i.e., Ca2+ and Mg2+) from the near-surface of these minerals. The O 1s spectra of leached olivine and pyroxenes show an additional peak due to OH, which arises from H+ exchange with near-surface cations (Ca2+ and Mg2+) via electrophilic attack of H+ on the M-O-Si moiety to produce the H2Mg(M1)SiO4(surf) complex at olivine surfaces, and two complexes, H2Mg(M1)Si2O6(surf) and H4Si2O6(surf) at diopside and enstatite surfaces. The olivine and pyroxene surface complexes H2Mg(M1)SiO4(surf) and H2Mg(M1)Si2O6(surf) have been proposed previously, but the second pyroxene surface complex H4Si2O6(surf) has not. Two electrophilic reactions occur in both olivine and pyroxene. For olivine, the more rapid attacks the M2-O-Si moiety producing H2Mg(M1)SiO4(surf); while the second attacks the M1-O-Si moiety ultimately producing H4SiO4 which is released to solution. For pyroxenes, the first electrophilic reaction produces H2Mg(M1)Si2O6(surf), while the second produces.H4Si2O6(surf). These two reactions are followed by a nucleophilic attack of H2O (or H3O+) on Si of H4Si2O6(surf). This reaction is responsible for rupture of the brigding oxygen bond of the Si-O-Si moiety and release of H4SiO4 to solution. The intensity of the OH peak for the leached pyroxenes is about double the OH intensity for the leached olivine, consistent with the equivalent of about a monolayer of the above surface complexes being formed in all three minerals.Valence band XPS spectra and density functional calculations demonstrate the remarkable insensitivity of the valence band to leaching of Ca2+ and Mg2+ from the surface layers. This insensitivity is due to a dearth of Ca and Mg valence electron density in the valence band: the Ca-O and Mg-O bonds are highly ionic, with metal-derived s orbital electrons taking on strong O 2p character. The valence band spectrum of leached olivine shows an additional very weak peak at about 13.5 eV, which is assigned to Si 3s valence orbitals in the surface complex H2Mg(M1)SiO4, as indicated by high quality density functional calculations on an olivine where Mg2+ in M2 is replaced by 2H+. The intensity of this new peak is consistent with formation of the equivalent of a monolayer of the surface complex.  相似文献

Polarized electronic absorption spectra of single crystalline Co2[SiO4] and (Co0.64Mg0.36)2[SiO4] (E|| a (|| Z), E || b (|| X), E || c (|| Y)) have been studied in the temperature range 293 T/K 1273. The three polarized spectra show a total of 15 bands. Five bands are caused by spin-allowed transitions in Co2+ ions at M1 sites which appear in all polarization directions. Seven polarization-dependent bands can be ascribed to spin-allowed transitions in Co2+ ions at M2 sites and three bands may be assigned to spin-forbidden transitions. The assignment of bands due to Co2+ ions at M1 and M2 sites has been made on the basis of transition energies and intensity ratios. Further arguments have been derived from the comparison of spectra of crystals with different cobalt content, from the analysis of the polarization dependence of the spectra, and from the evolution of band intensities with temperature.  相似文献

Adsorption of H2O, NH3 and C6H6 on H- and alkali metal-exchanged structures of mordenite and on corresponding cations on the smectite layer is investigated by ab initio density-functional calculations. Proton or an alkali metal cation compensates one Al/Si framework substitution and resides in the extra-framework position of zeolite or above flat smectite layer close to the Al/Si substitution. Pronounced similarities between zeolite and smectite are observed in changes of the adsorption energies and location of the external cation with changing character of the external cation. Calculated adsorption energies exhibit the following trend: E(NH3) > E(H2O) > E(C6H6). Because of looser contact with the framework, zeolitic cations are stronger adsorption centers and calculated adsorption energies of zeolites are by ~20–30% larger than cations of smectites. The highest adsorption energy is calculated for H-exchanged structures and down the group of alkali metal cations a decrease of the adsorption energy is observed. Deviations from the smooth variation of the adsorption energy are caused by: (1) formation of strong hydrogen bonds in H-exchanged structures, (2) adsorption induced migration of the external Li+ cation, and (3) steric hindrances of the flat C6H6 molecule adsorbed on the cation in the cage of zeolite.  相似文献

Lithian ferrian enstatite with Li2O = 1.39 wt% and Fe2O3 7.54 wt% was synthesised in the (MgO–Li2O–FeO–SiO2–H2O) system at P = 0.3 GPa, T = 1,000°C, fO2 = +2 Pbca, and a = 18.2113(7), b = 8.8172(3), c = 5.2050(2) Å, V = 835.79(9) Å3. The composition of the orthopyroxene was determined combining EMP, LA-ICP-MS and single-crystal XRD analysis, yielding the unit formula M2(Mg0.59Fe 0.21 2+ Li0.20) M1(Mg0.74Fe 0.20 3+ Fe 0.06 2+ ) Si2O6. Structure refinements done on crystals obtained from synthesis runs with variable Mg-content show that the orthopyroxene is virtually constant in composition and hence in structure, whereas coexisting clinopyroxenes occurring both as individual grains or thin rims around the orthopyroxene crystals have variable amounts of Li, Fe3+ and Mg contents. Structure refinement shows that Li is ordered at the M2 site and Fe3+ is ordered at the M1 site of the orthopyroxene, whereas Mg (and Fe2+) distributes over both octahedral sites. The main geometrical variations observed for Li-rich samples are actually due to the presence of Fe3+, which affects significantly the geometry of the M1 site; changes in the geometry of the M2 site due to the lower coordination of Li are likely to affect both the degree and the kinetics of the non-convergent Fe2+-Mg ordering process in octahedral sites.  相似文献
