About LobanoviteHide

Constantin Valentinovich Lobanov

Formula:

K₂Na(Fe²⁺₄Mg₂Na)Ti₂(Si₄O₁₂)₂O₂(OH)₄

Colour:

Straw yellow to orange

Lustre:

Vitreous

Hardness:

Specific Gravity:

3.161 (Calculated)

Crystal System:

Monoclinic

Member of:

Devitoite Group > Astrophyllite Supergroup

Name:

First described in 1959 as "unusual light yellow and greenish fibrous astrophyllite" by E.I. Semenov from Kukisvumchorr Mt, Khibiny, Kola, Russia (Pekov 1998). Named magnesium astrophyllite for its relationship to astrophyllite and changed in 2008 to magnesioastrophyllite. It was formally described as a new mineral in 2017 (Sokolova et al.). The name lobanovite honors Dr. Constantin V. Lobanov, a Russian geologist working in the Kola Peninsula.

Co-Type Localities:

ⓘ Kukisvumchorr Mt, Khibiny Massif, Murmansk Oblast, Russia
ⓘ Yukspor Mt, Khibiny Massif, Murmansk Oblast, Russia

Unique combination of elements.

Note:
Originally named and published as "magnesium astrophyllite" and "magnesioastrophyllite". Validated by IMA in 2015 under the name lobanovite (IMA 15-B).

Peng & Ma (1963) established its monoclinic symmetry.

The structure is based on HOH blocks comprising one cp octahedral and two heteropolyhedral sheets; the HOH blocks repeat along [001]. The O sheet is built of M(1-4) octahedra; the H sheet is formed by T₄O₁₂ astrophyllite ribbons having common vertices with D polyhedra dominated by ^VTi. K and Na atoms are in the interstitial A and B sites.
