About Maghagendorfite
Formula:
(Na,◻)MgMn2+(Fe2+,Fe3+)2(PO4)3
Colour:
greenish black
Hardness:
4½
Crystal System:
Monoclinic
Member of:
Name:
Named by Paul (Paulus) Brian Moore and Jun Ito in 1979 for magnesium and the relationship to hagendorfite. The name was based on a chemical analysis of a hagendorfite series mineral, but was never formally described. The first member of this series was maghagendorfite-Na□.
Isostructural with:
This root name is a series in the Alluaudite Group. The species maghagendorfite-Na□ was originally found at the Dyke Lode granite pegmatite in the Keystone District, Pennington Co., South Dakota (Moore and Ito, 1979). Maghagendorfite-NaNa was later found at Rapid Creek, Yukon, Canada (Robinson, et al., 1992}. The X1 site may be vacant, partially occupied, or greater than 50% occupied for change compensation occurring in the M sites.

Classification of Maghagendorfite
Approved, Questionable
Approval history:
Hatert (2019), proposed a new nomenclature scheme for the alluaudite supergroup. In the re-evaluation of previous studies it was found that 'Maghagendorfite is absent from the samples, since the cationic distribution used here considers a preference of Mg for the M(2) site, not for M(1).' He concluded that 'since the cationic distribution of maghagendorfite is unlikely, we recommend considering this species as “Questionable”.'
