Only the \u03b3-form was previously known as the orthorhombic mineral hibbingite, associated with altered mafic intrusive rocks. In this study, we describe the \u03b2-polymorph of Fe<sub>2<\/sub>(OH)<sub>3<\/sub>Cl as a new mineral parahibbingite that was found in pyroxenite from the Karee platinum mine in the Bushveld Complex, South Africa. The two minerals were distinguished by a combination of Raman spectroscopy and FIB-SEM-TEM analytical techniques (TEM-EDX and TEM-SAED). They can be easily recognized by their distinct Raman spectra. Parahibbingite has two very strong vibration bands at ~3550 and 3560 cm<sup>\u20131<\/sup>, accompanied by much weaker bands at ~124 and 160 cm<sup>\u22121<\/sup>, while the Raman spectrum of hibbingite has a sharp, strong band at 3450 cm<sup>\u22121<\/sup>&nbsp;and two moderate bands at 199 and 385 cm<sup>\u22121<\/sup>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Parahibbingite was found as fine-grained reaction rims at the contact of orthopyroxene phenocrysts and talc inside a drill core. It has a trigonal space group [<em>R<\/em>3<em>m, a<\/em>&nbsp;= 6.94(5) \u00c5;&nbsp;<em>c<\/em>&nbsp;= 14.5(2) \u00c5], with an empirical formula (\u2060Fe2+1.98Mn2+0.01Fe1.982+Mn0.012+Ca<sub>0.01<\/sub>)(OH)<sub>3.08<\/sub>Cl<sub>0.92<\/sub>. The origin of this mineral in the Bushveld Complex is most likely related to a late hydrothermal alteration of pyroxenite. Hibbingite forms as an abundant daughter mineral hosted by fluid inclusions and salt melt inclusions in hydrothermal quartz associated with granitic systems during cooling under reducing conditions. Such inclusions are common in Au-porphyry mineralization worldwide, such as the Biely Vrch (Slovakia) deposit studied in detail in this work. The lattice parameters obtained by TEM-SAED are&nbsp;<em>a<\/em>&nbsp;= 6.30 \u00c5,&nbsp;<em>b<\/em>&nbsp;= 7.12 \u00c5, and&nbsp;<em>c<\/em>&nbsp;= 9.89 \u00c5.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"671\" height=\"257\" src=\"https:\/\/kmplg.sk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/hib.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2975\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kmplg.sk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/hib.png 671w, https:\/\/kmplg.sk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/hib-300x115.png 300w, https:\/\/kmplg.sk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/hib-157x60.png 157w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 671px) 100vw, 671px\" \/><figcaption>Images of Hibbingit (Hib) and Parahibbingite (Phb) in the sample of pyroxenite from the Bushveld Complex (JAR).<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Hibbingite was recognized as the only phase that carries \u201cwater\u201d (as a hydroxyl group) in otherwise water-free, salt melt inclusions. Furthermore, both hibbingite and parahibbingite should be considered as reservoirs for Cl and H<sub>2<\/sub>O in large volumes of altered basic and ultrabasic rocks. They can transport volatiles to shallow levels of subduction zones. Alternatively, their dissolution can fuel remobilization, transport, and deposition of sulfidic ores in saline fluids. Their detection, however, is difficult because of their sensitivity to oxidizing atmospheres. For example, in natural outcrops exposed to air, they may vanish, thus distorting estimates of their abundance and role in many processes that involve mineral-derived volatiles.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ferrous hydroxychlorides hibbingite (\u03b3-Fe2(OH)3Cl) and parahibbingite (\u03b2-Fe2(OH)3Cl) as a 1 &hellip; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":2984,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"ngg_post_thumbnail":0},"categories":[8],"tags":[],"post_folder":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v19.4 -
