About: Brianyoungite

An Entity of Type: mineral, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Brianyoungite is a secondary zinc carbonate mineral. The Commission on New Minerals, Nomenclature and Classification (CNMNC) of the International Mineralogical Association (IMA) classifies it as a carbonate with the formula Zn3(CO3)(OH)4, but sulfate groups SO4 also occupy the carbonate CO3 positions, in the ratio of about one sulfate to three carbonates, so other sources give the formula as Zn3(CO3,SO4)(OH)4, and Gaines et al. classify the mineral as a compound carbonate. It is similar in appearance to hydrozincite, another zinc carbonate. It was discovered in 1991 and designated IMA1991-053. In 1993 it was named "brianyoungite" after Brian Young (born 1947), a field geologist with the British Geological Survey, who provided the first specimens.

  • La brianyoungite è un minerale secondario del carbonato di zinco. La Commission on New Minerals, Nomenclature and Classification (CNMNC) dell'Associazione Mineralogica Internazionale (IMA) lo classifica come carbonato con la formula Zn3(CO3)(OH)4, ma anche i gruppi solfato SO4 occupano le posizioni carboniche CO3 , nel rapporto di circa un solfato a tre carbonati, quindi altre fonti danno come formula Zn3(CO3,SO4)(OH)4, e in alcuni casi il minerale viene classificato come carbonato composto. È simile nell'aspetto all'idrozincite, un altro carbonato di zinco. È stato scoperto nel 1991 e designato IMA 1991-053. Nel 1993 è stato chiamato "brianyoungite" in onore di Brian Young (nato nel 1947), un geologo sul campo del British Geological Survey, che ha fornito i primi esemplari. (it)
