Boron isotopic variations in tourmaline from metacarbonates and associated calc-silicate rocks from the Bohemian Massif: Constraints on boron recycling in the Variscan orogen

Lukas Krmicek et al.

Summary: Various metacarbonate and calc-silicate rocks in the Bohemian Massif of the Variscan orogen contain tourmaline in different paragenetic settings, each showing distinctive compositional features. The presence of tourmaline with different B-isotope compositions in specific units suggests regional variations and possible metamorphic processes within the studied areas.

Cation partitioning among crystallographic sites based on bond-length constraints in tourmaline-supergroup minerals

Peter Bacik et al.

Summary: Theoretical calculations based on ideal bond valences can predict ion site preference and partitioning in tourmaline structures under low-pressure conditions, determining the range of stable bond lengths and preferences for different ions at specific sites. The final composition of tourmaline is influenced by the interaction of structure with the genetic environment, resulting in structural and environmental constraints that limit the incorporation of certain elements while favoring the abundance of major elements.

Magnesio-lucchesiite, CaMg3Al6(Si6O18)(BO3)3(OH)3O, a new species of the tourmaline supergroup

Emily D. Scribner et al.

Summary: Magnesio-lucchesiite is a new mineral species of the tourmaline supergroup, characterized by black crystals with vitreous luster, estimated hardness of 7-8, and densities of 3.168 (Canada) and 3.175 g/cm(3) (Italy). Its crystal structure was refined, showing pleochroic properties and trigonal symmetry.
