The information given here is provided by the IMA Commission on New Minerals, Nomenclature andClassification for comparative purposes and as a service to mineralogists working on new species.
Each mineral is described in the following format:
Mineral name, if the authors agree on its release prior to the full description appearing in press
Chemical formula
Type locality
Full authorship of proposal
E-mail address of corresponding author
Relationship to other minerals
Crystal system, Space group; Structure determined, yes or no
Unit-cell parameters
Strongest lines in the X-ray powder-diffraction pattern
Type specimen repository and specimen number
Citation details for the mineral prior to publication of full description
It is still a requirement for the authors to publish a full description of the new mineral.
NO OTHER INFORMATION WILL BE RELEASED BY THE COMMISSION

294

A list of newly approved minerals is now
available (as a pdf ﬁle) from the IMACNMNC website (http://pubsites.uws.edu.au/
ima-cnmnc/). This interim list contains names
and data for minerals which have been
approved, discredited, redeﬁned and renamed
since the March 2009 listing currently on the
IMA website, and for which names and data
have been published. It is intended to update thisinterim list periodically while work continues ona new revised and comprehensive master list of
all IMA-approved and grandfathered (i.e.
inherited from before 1960) minerals.
