| ⓘ Pumpellyite-(Fe2+) Formula: Ca2Fe2+Al2[Si2O6OH][SiO4](OH)2(OH) Description: According to the microprobe/EDS test here they are the results of the analysed pumpellyite from Montijos:
Atomic -%:
Ca28 Mg2 Fe5 Al26 Si39
Oxygen not dosed
Calculation on 8 a. p. f. u. :
Ca2.0 (Fe0.4 Mg0.2 Ca0.2)0.8 Al2.1 (SiO4)1.0 (Si2O7)1.0 - (8 apfu)
Checked the oxidation state of Fe (dissolution in HF, and addition of KSCN: no coloration = absence of Fe3+)
Checked the mineral with XRD diffraction: the diffraction diagramm is identical to minerals of pumpellyite structural group
