Abstract

57Fe Mössbauer spectra of a cleaned Weipa, Australia, kaolin showed that a considerable fraction of the structural iron exhibits paramagnetic relaxation between 4°K and 300°K, the first time that this has been observed for ferric ions in a mineral. The sample also contained a very fine particle ferric oxide/oxyhydroxide phase, probably of secondary origin.

Резюме

Резюме

Мессбауеровские спектры 57Fе чистого каолинита Вайпа из Австралии показали, что значительная фракция структурного железа проявляет парамагнитную релаксацию между 4° и 300°К. Это наблюдалось первый раз для железных ионов в минерале. Образец содержал также очень мелкую фазу окиси/оксигидрата железа, вероятно, вторичного происхождения. [Е.О.]

Résumé

57Eisen-Mössbauerspektren eines gereinigten Kaolin von Weipa, Australien, zeigte, daß ein beachtlicher Teil des in der Struktur eingebauten Eisens paramagnetische Relaxation zwischen 4°K und 300°K zeigt. Dies wurde zum ersten Mal bei einem Fe3+-Ion in einem Mineral beobachtet. Die Probe entheilt außerdem eine sehr feinteilige Fe3+-Oxid/Oxihydroxid-Phase, die wahrscheinlich sekundär entstanden ist. [U.W.]
