| Abstract: | The thermoelastic behaviour of anthophyllite has been determined for a natural crystal with crystal-chemical formula ANa0.01

W(OH)2 using single-crystal X-ray diffraction to 973 K. The best model for fitting the thermal expansion data is that of Berman
(J Petrol 29:445–522, 1988) in which the coefficient of volume thermal expansion varies linearly with T as α

W(OH)2, suggesting that high contents of small cations at the B-site may be primarily responsible for the much higher thermal expansion
⊥(100). Refined values for site-scattering at M4 decrease from 31.64 epfu at 298 K to 30.81 epfu at 973 K, which couples with similar increases of those of M1 and M2 sites. These changes in site scattering are interpreted in terms of Mn ↔ Mg exchange involving M1,2 ↔ M4, which was first detected at 673 K. |
