The CRYSTAL CHEMISTRY and STRUCTURE of OXIDE MINERALS as EXEMPLIFIED by the Fe-Ti OXIDES Donald H. Lindsle}:

Chapter I INTRODUCTION Crystal structures play a vital role in the interpretation of chemical reactions and magnetic properties of the oxide minerals.

For most purposes it

is useful to treat the oxide minerals as ionic crystals that consist of oxygen frameworks (nearly cubic or hexagonal close-packed) with cations occupying octahedral or tetrahedral interstices.

Both iron and titanium as well as

manganese are members of the first transition metal series; each can therefore exist in more than one valence state. 3d electrons in Ti to these ions.

, Fe

, Fe

, Mn

Furthermore, the existence of unpaired , and Mn

imparts net magnetic moments

Thus a complete characterization of the structure of an oxide

mineral must include the determination of valence states and magnetic orientation as well as the position of each atom in the unit cell.

In some cases it

is necessary to chose a magnetic unit cell that is a multiple of the crystallographic cell, or, alternatively, to view the magnetic cell as having lower symmetry than the crystallographic cell of the same size.

No one technique

can uniquely characterize the structure and chemistry of an iron-bearing oxide mineral, but a combination of methods has yielded detailed information on the most important structures.

Techniques The primary method of determining the structures is of course x-ray diffraction.

Single-crystal x-ray studies yield the (non-magnetic) symmetry of

the structure, the positions of the metal ions, and with lesser precision, the positions of the oxygen ions.

Thus in 1915, only three years after the

discovery of x-ray diffraction, Bragg and Nishikawa were able independently to determine the main details of the magnetite (spinel) structure. However, 2+ 3+ they were not able to assign Fe and Fe to specific sites in the structure (the assignment they assumed is incorrect), nor were they able to determine the oxygen positions with great precision.

Nevertheless, the basic structure

provided by x-ray diffraction makes possible the utilization of other

L-l

techniques, for these merely provide refinements of the structure rather than independent determinations of it. Neutron diffraction is an important technique in determining the structures of the oxide minerals; three characteristics make it especially useful. It can yield information on (1) electron spin orientation and thus on magnetic structures; (2) oxygen parameters, since oxygen has a relatively large scattering cross-section for neutrons; and (3) the distribution of iron and titanium in the structure.

(The electron densities of iron and titanium are sufficiently

similar that x-ray diffraction cannot always distinguish between them, whereas the scattering cross-section of iron for neutrons is three times that of titanium in magnitude and of the opposite sign.)

Most determinations of mag-

netic structure and precise oxygen parameters utilize neutron diffraction. Measurement of saturation magnetization at low temperature can test models of magnetic structures, and is particularly useful in studying solid solution series.

Electrical conductivity measurements have also been used to predict

magnetic symmetry and cation distribution; this technique has been superseded for the most part. Naturally occurring

in the iron-titanium oxides permits application

of the Mossbauer effect, which has been particularly useful in determining cation valencies, and, to a lesser extent, magnetic structure.

Determination

of the isomer shift for "^Fe in the sample relative to that in the source provides a quantitative (or at least semiquantitative) measure of the valence of the iron—and, by difference, that of other cations.

Magnetic properties The ensuing discussion of crystal structures must refer to several concepts of magnetism of the solid state.

These concepts are briefly reviewed

here; a more extensive review is given by Nagata (1961, p. 1-39) and by Stacey and Banerjee (1974). An electron in an atom (or ion) has a magnetic moment that results from its spin, from its orbital motion, or from a combination of both.

In iron and

titanium, the moment results mainly from spin rather than orbital motion.

The

moments of electrons with opposite spins but with otherwise identical quantum states are self-cancelling.

Atoms and ions in which all the electrons are thus

paired have no net magnetic moment and are called diamagnetic.

Atoms or ions

with one or more unpaired electrons, on the other hand, have a net magnetic moment and are termed paramagnetic.

The magnetic moment of an unpaired elec-20

tron is one Bohr magneton (y ) which equals 0.9274 x 10 B L-2

emu.

Most para-

magnetic particles have but one unpaired electron and therefore have moments of 1 yg.

However, in the first transition-metal series each of the five states

in the 3d level tends to be filled first by a single electron, and to become doubly occupied only after all five have been filled singly. as the high-spin condition.

(This is known

When as many 3d electrons as possible are paired,

the atom or ion is said to be in the low-spin condition.)

The spins of elec-

trons occupying the same state must be opposed, in accord with the Pauli ex3+ and Fe , each having five unpaired 3d electrons 2+ with parallel spins, have magnetic saturation moments of 5y_. Fe has six D 3d electrons,'two of which are paired and therefore self-cancelling, so the elusion principle.

Mn

2+

resultant saturation moment due to the four unpaired electrons is 4 yD. Fe° likewise has six 3d electrons (as well as two paired 4s electrons) and also has a saturation moment of

with one 3d electron has 1 y B , but Ti^ + with

no 3d electrons has no net moment. It might be noted here that the saturation moments differ slightly from the susceptibility moments of the same ions.

Susceptibility moments are some-

what larger, and tend not to be integral numbers of Bohr magnetons. If paramagnetic atoms or ions are incorporated into a crystal structure with their spins (and hence their magnetic moments) randomly oriented, the resulting solid has a low magnetic susceptibility and no net moment, and is termed paramagnetic. But in crystals of a-iron, for example, exchange interaction between neighboring iron atoms results in a parallel alignment of moments throughout each of several small volumes (domains) of the crystal. Such crystals that have high magnetic susceptibilities and can acquire remanent (permanent) magnetic moments, are termed ferromagnetic. The theory of ferromagnetism is reviewed by Bozorth (1951). Exchange interactions are strongly effective only between nearest-neighbor atoms.

In oxide structures, however, the nearest neighbors of the metals are

always oxygen ions, and exchange coupling cannot be invoked.

Kramers (1934)

proposed that the spins of next-nearest neighbor metal ions are coupled through the intermediate oxygens, a mechanism that he called superexchange. Anderson (1950) provided a firm theoretical basis for superexchange interactions, which now play a central role in most interpretations of the magnetic properties of oxides.

Superexchange becomes more effective as the metal-oxygen-metal angle

approaches 180°, and in general the interaction is negative:

the moments of

tyo paramagnetic ions coupled by superexchange through an oxygen are antiparallel and hence self-cancelling.

Crystals in which superexchange inter-

actions produce two equal magnetic substructures with opposite spin directions are termed antiferromagnetic (Hulthen, 1936). L-3

A perfect antiferromagnetic

crystal has no magnetic moment, but if impurities, defects, or cation deficiencies are concentrated in one substructure there may be a net moment, as was postulated, for example, by Neel (1949,1953) to explain the ferromagnetism" of hematite.

"parasitic

Similarly, if the spin directions of the magnetic

substructures are not precisely antiparallel, there can be a resultant moment perpendicular to the spin axes; this phenomenon is termed

"spin-canting."

For every antiferromagnetic substance there is a characteristic

temper-

a t u r e — the Neel p o i n t — a t and above which the antiferromagnetic structure is destroyed through thermal vibration and the m a t e r i a l becomes paramagnetic. Some substances, such as ilmenite, are paramagnetic at room temperature but become antiferromagnetic at lower temperatures.

Magnetic susceptibility

and

specific heat of an antiferromagnetic material usually reach a m a x i m u m at or near the Neel point. For some oxide structures superexchange interaction results in the formation of two magnetic substructures with opposite but unequal moments.

Such

structures have a net magnetic moment and were called ferrimaonetir;

by Neel

(1948), the term being derived from the ferrites

ferrimag-

netism is best displayed.

(spinels) in w h i c h

Ferrimagnetic substances, like ferromagnetic

ones,

each have a characteristic t e m p e r a t u r e — t h e Curie p o i n t — a t and above which they become paramagnetic; there is a close analogy between the Curie point and the Neel point of antiferromagnetic materials.

Many m a c r o s c o p i c properties

of ferrimagnetism are closely similar to those of ferromagnetism, and the former is sometimes conveniently if inelegantly considered a subclass of the latter. Thus it is common to speak of the "ferromagnetic properties" of a rock or mineral, even though those properties are almost certainly due to ferrimagnetism.

Both ferrimagnetism and antiferromagnetism w i t h parasitic

ferromag-

netism result from two opposite but unequal magnetic substructures, but in ferrimagnetism the inequality is a result of the crystal structure and thus would exist even in a perfect crystal.

THE CUBIC OXIDE MINERALS

Many oxide minerals have a cubic structure; others are perhaps best viewed as slight distortions or modifications of isometric structures.

In

general the oxygens approach cubic close packing.

frame-

A cubic-close-packed

w o r k of 32 oxygens contains a total of 64 tetrahedral sites and 32 octahedral sites.

If only octahedral sites are occupied by divalent cations, as in peri-

clase (MgO), the crystal has the NaCl structure

are occupied.

Not all of both sets of sites can be filled, however, for this

would require face-sharing between octahedra and t e t r a h e d r a — w h i c h is energetically unstable because of electrostatic repulsion of the cations.

The

filling of 8 tetrahedral sites precludes occupancy of more than 16 octahedral sites; conversely, the filling of 16 octahedral sites permits occupancy of only 8 of the 64 possible tetrahedral sites, if the symmetry of the space group is maintained.

Like periclase, manganosite (MnO) has the NaCl structure, with the divalent cations occupying the octahedral interstices.

Although rare as a mineral (but see, for example, Walenta, 1960), the phase wustite (nominally FeO) is of considerable interest. troversy raged over whether stoichiometric FeO exists.

For years a con-

There is now general

(1967) reported synthesis of stoichiometric FeO at presThe value a - 4.323 + 0.001 A determined by them is very

close to that predicted for pure FeO by extrapolation

(4.326 1) .

Roth (1960) has made a detailed study of the defect structure of wustite by neutron diffraction.

The diffraction patterns not only confirm the presence

of vacancies in the octahedral iron positions, but indicate more such vacancies than are required by the chemical analysis.

For example, the neutron diffrac-

tion data indicate 0.08 vacancies per octahedral iron site for the composition Fe n / 0 . Evidently 0.02 iron ions per formula unit must be accommodated in u. y4 tetrahedral sites interstitial to the close-packed oxygen framework.

Cubic

symmetry is maintained if the unit cell is doubled; the resulting space group is Fd3m.

The symmetry and oxygen content of such a cell are identical to that L-6

of magnetite, and, indeed, Roth visualized the local structure in the vicinity of octahedral vacancies as essentially that of magnetite. Roth's model has been generally confirmed by single crystal x-ray diffraction studies (Koch et at. , 1966; Koch and Fine, 1967, Koch and Cohen, 1969) which suggested the presence of ordered complexes of octahedral vacancies and tetraShirane et at. (1962) have found Mossbauer evidence that the 2+ symmetry around the Fe irons is less than cubic; they infer that the

hedral cations. local

lower symmetry is due to the vacancies.

Some studies have shown that quenched

wiistites may have one of three slightly different structures (Vallet and Raccah, 1965; Kleman, 1965; Carel, 1967).

Swaroof and Wagner (1967) could find no evi-

dence of phase changes in the wiistite field at 950-1250°C; however, high-temperature x-ray diffraction studies by Manenc (1968) show that at least one of the ordered structures persists to 1000°C for Fe-poor compositions.

Manenc sug-

gests that at temperatures within the wiistite stability field, Fe-rich wiistites have the true NaCl structure (with the vacancies random) whereas Fe poor wiistites have an ordered structure. Spinel group A large number of oxide minerals, some sulfides, and many artificial substances crystallize with the spinel structure, which is extraordinarily flexible in terms of the cations it will accept.

At least 30 different elements, with

valences ranging from +1 to +6, can serve as cations in oxide spinels.

Some

geologically important spinel end members are listed in Table L-l. Of the irontitanium oxides, the magnetite-ulvospinel solid solution series has the spinel structure, as do the cation-deficient oxides—at least as a first approximation— maghemite and titanomaghemite.

The unit cell is face-centered, cubic, and in

oxide spinels contains 32 oxygens, which form a nearly cubic-close-packed framework as viewed along the cube diagonals ([111]), the space group being Fcfim. The cations occupy interstices within the oxygen framework (Fig. L-3). In space group Fd3m there are two alternative sets of compatible tetrahedral and octahedral sites:

16d (octahedral) and 8a (tetrahedral) or 16e and 8b (International

Tables, 1952, p. 340-341).

These sets, although mutually exclusive, are iden-

tical in that a translation of the origin by j, j, | will bring one set into coincidence with the other. the spinels.

By convention, the set 16d and 8a is chosen for

There is considerable variation in the literature regarding the

notation used to describe these sites.

Most workers have employed the Wyckoff

(1922) notation, others that of the International Tables—which is followed here—and still others a notation based on the concept of magnetic substructures

The sites occupied by cations in the spinel unit cell are special sites; that is, they lie at the intersections of symmetry elements.

These sites are

Thus the coordinates x, y, z of one tetrahedral (a) site are

The oxygens lie in

32 e sites whose coordinates in terms of u are given in Table L-3. If the oxygen parameter u happened to equal jj, the oxygens would occupy special sites, which correspond to rigorous cubic close-packing.*

Inasmuch as u does not deviate

greatly from ¡j, it is a reasonable and useful approximation to view the oxygens as close-packed.

Variations in u correspond to displacements of oxygens along

cube diagonals, and reflect adjustments to the relative effective radii of cations in the tetrahedral and octahedral sites.

An increase in u corresponds

to an enlargement of the tetrahedral coordination polyhedra and a compensating diminution in the octahedra (see Fig. L-A'). In addition, the entire oxygen framework (i.e., the unit cell) can expand or contract to accommodate cations of larger or smaller average effective radius.

It is this flexibility of the

In magnetite X = 21 and Y = Fe

The original determinations of the spinel structure (Bragg, 1915a,b; Nishikawa, 2+ 3+ 1915) were made on magnetite and on spinel (X=Mg , Y=A1 ); it was impossible to distinguish between the X and Y cations on the basis of x-ray intensities 2+ 3+ because of the similar scattering powers of Mg and A l and of Fe

and Fe

For simplicity it was assumed that the eight X cations occupy the 8a sites and the sixteen Y cations occupy the 16d sites, giving a structural formula: X [ Y 2 ] 0 4 , where the brackets denote cations in octahedral

(16c?) sites.

Barth

and Posnjak (1931,1932) discovered by careful x-ray intensity measurements that this "normal" structure was correct for several aluminate spinels, but not for many other spinels.

The latter have 8 of the 16 Y cations in the 8a

sites, yielding the structural formula Y[YX]0^.

Verwey and H e i l m a n n

(1947)

termed these spinels "inversed," and at present they are known as "inverse spinels."

It is now known that most spinels are intermediate between these L-ll

two extremes.

Table L-l indicates which end member spinels are normal and which

are inverse. Verwey and Heilmann (1947) also gave empirical rules regarding the distribution of cations in the tetrahedral and octahedral sites of the spinel structure.

Electrostatic and ionic radius considerations alone are insufficient to

explain the observed distributions.

Goodenough and Loeb (1955) showed that 3 3+ bonds—such as Fe —are favored

cations having a tendency to form hybrid sp in tetrahedral sites.

There have been suggestions that ions thus bound in

tetrahedral sites are relatively immobile (Frolich and Stiller, 1963; O'Reilly and Banerjee, 1966), but self-diffusion experiments indicate otherwise (Lindner and Akerstrom, 1956). Magnetite

Both Bragg (1915a,b) and Nishikawa (1915) determined

the magnetite structure using Laue x-ray photographs obtained from single 2+ 3+ crystals. They assumed that the structural formula was Fe [Fe2 and that the oxygen parameter u was 0.25, although they recognized that it would vary with cation composition. 0.001.

Claassen (1926) refined the value of u to 0.254 +

Hamilton (1958) further refined u to 0.2548 + 0.0002 at 23°C from

neutron diffraction data. A wide range of values for the unit-cell parameter (a) of magnetite has been reported.

Several reasons for this variation exist.

Many of the magne-

tites were not adequately characterized chemically, and2+the discrepancies 3+ probably reflect the presence of cations other than Fe and Fe , or of cation vacancies.

Precise x-ray work on natural and synthetic magnetites of known

composition has yielded values of a ranging from to 8.3963 X. 2+ 8.3933+ The similarity in scattering power of Fe and Fe made it impossible for the early workers to determine the structural formula of magnetite by x-ray methods.

Verwey and deBoer (1936) used measurements of electrical 3+ conductivity 2+ 3+ to demonstrate that magnetite has the inverse spinel structure, Fe [Fe Fe Neel (1948) predicted that the irons in the 8a and the 16d sites form two magnetic substructures with antiparallel moments along [111].

Final confirmation of the model was provided by the neutron

diffraction experiments of Shull et at. (1951b). For many purposes it is useful to view the magnetite structure along the [111] axis (Fig. L-5).

It is along this axis that the (nearly) cubic close-

packing of the oxygens is observed and that the ferrimagnetic moment tends to be directed.

The structure of mag-

netite as viewed in this way bears many similarities to that of hematite, and the (111) planes play an important role in the textural relations between these two minerals. The Curie temperature of magnetite corresponds to a transition from longrange ferrimagnetic ordering at lower temperatures to disorder at higher temperatures.

Values of the Curie temperature ranging from 570° to 581°C have

been reported.

The transition is accompanied by m a x i m a in the coefficient of

thermal expansion, the specific heat and the neutron scattering

cross-section.

At low temperatures magnetite undergoes another transition w h i c h involves a decrease in crystallographic symmetry, electrical conductivity, and magnetic properties.

Syono (1965, p. 136) reported that neutron dif-

fraction measurements gave u = 0.261 + 0.001 for x = 0.99 and u = 0.255 + 0.001 for x = 0.56. Several different structural formulae for the solid solution have been 4+ 3+ proposed. The Akimoto model assumes that Ti always replaces the Fe in 2+ 3+ 16d in magnetite whereas Fe always replaces the Fe in 8a; the general formula would be Fe? + Fe^ + [Fe^ + Fe? + Ti^+]0,, yielding a predicted saturation 1-x x 1-x x 4 moment of 4(l-x) p B (Akimoto, 1954); see Figs. L-7 and L-8. Neel (1955, p. 196) and Chevallier et al. (1955) assumed that all Ti^ + enters the d sites, 2+ 3+ 3+ and that Fe first replaces Fe in d sites and only then the Fe in a sites.

This model, which is in accord with the empirical rules of Verwey and

Heilmann (1947) as well as the theoretical considerations of Goodenough and Loeb (1955), yields the structural formulae: for 0 < x < 1/2 (li-1) 4

for 1/2 £ x £ 1.

The corresponding saturation moments are (4-6x) y,. for 0 < x < 1/2 and (2-2x) Pg for 1/2 _< x £ 1.

The observed moments for many synthetic solid solutions

(Fig. L-7) fall about half-way between the values predicted for these two models (Akimoto et al. , 1957a, p. 173; Akimoto, 1962).

Much work

on maghemite has been spurred by the discovery of its usefulness in making magnetic tapes. Robbins (1859) showed that a "magnetic peroxide of iron," prepared by the oxidation of magnetite, had the composition Fe203 and thus was a polymorph of hematite.

Hagg (1935a,b), Verwey (1935a,b), and Kordes (1935) independently

The instability of maghemite at high temperatures makes it impossible to determine the Curie point directly.

Two different values that differ by nearly

100°C are presently in use; each has been determined by extrapolation.

Michel

and Chaudron (1935) determined the value 675 + 10°C by preparing a series of Na-stabilized "maghemites" and extrapolating their Curie temperatures to pure y-Fe-O-.

This value is accepted by most workers.

However, in 1949, Maxwell 2 + 3 +

et al. observed that "certain unreduced iron oxide catalysts" with Fe

/Fe

varying from 0.352 to 1.276 all had Curie temperatures equal, within a few degrees, to that of magnetite, 583°.

From this they concluded that the Curie

temperature of maghemite is likewise approximately 583°.

This conclusion may

be correct, but based on the information published (which is in an abstract only), it should be considered unproved.

Aharoni et al. (1962) claim to have

measured directly a Curie point of 590°C for maghemite; but as their major means of identifying the sample as maghemite is by the Curie temperature, their results must be viewed with caution.

Frolich and Vollstaedt (1967) have

calculated a Curie temperature for maghemite of 675°C, based on a measured value 650°C for LiFe_0 D oo .

The best conclusion at the present time is that none

of the methods for determining the Curie temperature of maghemite is completely satisfactory, and as a result no published value can be considered definitive. However, the 675° value seems tentatively more acceptable. Magnetite-maghemite intermediate between

solid solutions.

Hagg (1935b) prepared three spinels

and y - i ^ O ^ by partial oxidation of magnetite; the

relation of their compositions to cell parameters is shown in Figure L-9.

On

this basis Hagg proposed that there can exist a continuous solid solution series between magnetite and maghemite—which corresponds to a continuous increase from 0 to 2.67 vacancies per unit cell. Several workers (Feitknecht and Lehmann, 1959; Basta, 1959; Colombo et al., 1965; and Davis et al, 1968) have proposed an oxidation mechanism that can produce such a continuous series.

During oxidation, oxygen cannot be added

within

the existing structure which already consists of a (nearly) cubic-close-packed oxygen framework.

However, free oxygen at the surface

of a crystal can be

ionized by the addition of two electrons which are derived from ferrous ions 2+ 3+ = 2Fe + 2e . The charge within the

within the crystal by the reaction 2Fe

original crystal is no longer balanced; to restore the balance it is necessary 3+ to remove 2Fe for every 3 oxygens added at the surface—corresponding to one 3+ of every three newly formed Fe ions. The removal is accomplished by diffusion of the Fe 3+ through the oxygen framework to the surface of the crystal, where one of several possible fates awaits the expelled Fe

F e ^ - F e ^ series.

The data of H'dgg (1935b) and Feitknecht (1965) are for

samples oxidized from magnetite at relatively low temperatures (1200°C).

Hagg's data and those of David

and Welch are converted from KX; Greig et al. (1935, pp. 296-297) reported that the cell edge of their specimen was approximately 0.01 & smaller than that of pure magnetite, which is 8.394-8.396 A.

:

(1) They may be removed in solution if a liquid phase is present.

(2)

They may be deposited epitaxially as hematite on the surface of the crystal. (3) They may be deposited on the surface of the crystal as an extension of the original spinel structure, thus forming new maghemite.

Ideally these three

different mechanisms lead to three different products:

Case (1) produces a

crystal of maghemite containing the same number of oxygens, but smaller than, the parent magnetite, since the unit cell of maghemite is smaller than that of magnetite.

Case (2) produces a similar maghemite crystal that is surrounded by

hematite, and case (3) results in a crystal of maghemite containing the same number of iron atoms but 1/8 more oxygens than the parent magnetite; the crystal will have increased in size by (§)(a . .la ), or by a factor H maghemite magnetite of approximately 1.118.

In practice, of course, it is unlikely that any one

of these mechanisms would operate alone; more likely two or even all three would be involved. Colombo et al. (1965) have shown that case (3) is unlikely to obtain if there is any hematite in intimate contact with the magnetite; the 3+ 2Fe and 0 will crystallize as stable hematite if seed crystals are present. L-23

It is worth noting that the Fe

3+

ions expelled during oxidation are not 2+ 3+ necessarily those that have been converted from Fe to Fe . As Verwey et al. 2+ 3+ (1947) have pointed out, the eight Fe and eight Fe in octahedral sites per unit cell of maghemite are better viewed as a cloud of eight electrons distri3+ . The electrons that ionize the exterior oxygens are drawn 2+

buted around 16 Fe

from this cloud, not from any given Fe

ion.

Probably some tetrahedral cations

also migrate, since there may be some tetrahedral vacancies. The cation-deficient F e ^ ^ spinels produced by Kullerud and Donnay (1967) The cation-defi by reactions such as 3Fe 3 0 4 + 2S = FeS 2 + 4Fe2C>3 (spinel) must have formed in the absence of excess oxygen.

In this case it is sulfur,

rather than oxygen, that effectively removed electrons and iron from the magnetite.

Kullerud and Donnay have argued that an important part of the vacan-

cies in these spinels occur in tetrahedral sites.

If this interpretation were

correct, it would indicate a subtle difference between oxygen and sulfur in 3+ inducing diffusion of Fe

in magnetite; but it is difficult to envision a

mechanism by which the difference would be effective, since the diffusing cations may be drawn from sites many unit cells away from the new anions. Basta (1959) has tried to draw a distinction between the low-temperature phases produced by oxidation of magnetite and the limited solid solution of Fe20.j in at high temperatures (Greig et al. , 1935), calling the first the y-Fe-O.-Fe.-O, series and the second the a-Fe„0 o -Fe.0, series. It is true ¿ 3 3 4 2 3 3 4 that one of these series forms metastably at low temperatures and the other stably at high temperatures; but there seems to be no reason why they should be different structurally.

In each the decrease in Fe/O must be accomplished

by the formation of vacancies in the spinel structure.

Basta argues (1959, p.

700) that the data of Greig et al. show there is less change in a with composition in the a-Fe o 0„-Fe_0, series than in the y-Fe_0 n -Fe o 0, series. 2 3 3 4

A com-

parison of the Greig et al. data for magnetite containing 29 mole percent (22 weight percent) F e ^ ^

with

HSgg's data (Fig. L-9) shows no significant dif-

ference. It is mainly a matter of personal preference whether spinels intermediate in composition between Fe^O^ and

are considered as omission solid solu-

tions between magnetite and y-(or a ^ F e ^ ^ , or simply as cation-deficient magnetites.

I find the latter concept more meaningful, especially insofar

as it is extended to the titanium-bearing "titanomaghemites." Titanomaghenrites.

Spinels intermediate in composition between the Fe^O^-

Fe 2 TiO^ join and the Fe^^-FeTiO^ join are known to form in two ways: L-24

(1) by

stable—but quite limited—solid solution of Fe„0,-FeTi0- in the Fe.O.-Fe-TiO. 2 3 3 3 4 2 4 series at temperatures above 1000°C, and (2) by metastable oxidation of essentially binary Fe20^-Fe2TiO^ solid solutions at lower temperatures—probably well below 600°C.

As is the case with spinels intermediate between magnetite

and Fe2025 there is no a priori reason to assume that the structures formed at high and at low temperatures are basically different.

It is possible that

those Fe-Ti spinels formed stably at high temperatures may have a more nearly random distribution of Fe^ + , Fe^ + , Ti^"*", and vacancies over the octahedral and tetrahedral sites; but apparently no x-ray work on quenched specimens (let alone at high temperatures) has been done to test this possibility.

In the

absence of any data on the structures of the high-temperature phases, this discussion will concentrate on the structures of those formed by oxidation at lower temperatures.

These phases have been given a variety of names:

"Gener-

alized titanomagnetite," "abnormal" or "very abnormal titanomagnetite," "titanomaghemite," "y-titanohematite," and "y-phases."

The term "titanomaghemite" will

be used here to apply to any Fe-Ti spinels lying off the Fe20^-Fe2TiO^ join— that is, spinels with vacancies in some cation positions—and will not be restricted, as has sometimes been done, to spinels lying outside the Fe^O^Fe2Ti0Zt-FeTi03 compositional field. In the past, many workers have assumed that there was extensive, essentially binary, solid solution of FeTiO^ in magnetite.

To account for this

supposed solid solution, Dunn and Dey (1937, p. 160) proposed a hypothetical end member—cubic FeTiO^—by analogy with maghemite, cubic Fe203.

This pro-

posed end member was revived and named yFeTiO^ by Nichols (1955, p. 143) and by Chevallier et at. (1955, p. 322).

As subsequent experimental work and

analyses of volcanic Fe-Ti spinels have shown, however, there is no unique solid solution of FeTiO^ in magnetite, but rather an extension of the field of Fe-Ti spinels from the Fe,,0,-Fe„Ti0, join toward—and in some cases even 3 4 2 4 past—the Fe202~FeTi02 join. Consequently, this field of spinel has been viewed by some workers as reflecting solid solution of yFe202_yFeTi02 in Fe^O^Fe2TiO^.

There is nothing inherently incorrect in this viewpoint:

The concept

of omission solid solution is valid, and the use of a hypothetical end member is likewise acceptable.

However, I question the utility of this approach,

partly because it has led to pointless discussions as to the nature and structure of yFeTiO^, and partly because it tends to obscure the oxidation origin of titanomaghemites.

Chemically, the concept of yFeTiO^ is of little use:

is sufficient, for example, to refer to spinels lying in the Fe20^-Fe2TiO^FeTi0j-Fe202 field, without reference to a gamma end member.

The concept of

cation-deficiency, applied to spinels oxidized from essentially binary L-25

It

magnetite-ulvospinel solid solutions, is a much more useful (although no more "correct") approach to the structure of the titanomaghemites. In keeping with this viewpoint, compositions of titanomaghemites can conveniently be expressed in terms of two parameters, one that expresses in some way the Fe/Ti ratio, and one that indicates the degree of oxidation.

The first

parameter can be expressed either as an atomic ratio or as the mole fraction of Fe2TiO^ (or Fe^O^) in the parent binary solid solution, and is generally considered to remain constant during oxidation. (1) the number of Fe

The oxidation parameter can express

2+

ions oxidized (which equals twice the number of oxygens 2+ consumed), (2) the atomic fraction of oxidized Fe relative to initial total 2+ Fe

, or (3) the number of cations per unit cell; this number plus the number

of vacancies equals 24.

Table L-5 correlates some of the parameters that have

been used by various workers.

The parameter (Fe2TiOj!() / (Fe^O^ + Fe 2 TiO^) (this

is the x of the Japanese workers and of O'Reilly and Banerjee, and the q of Verhoogen) is particularly useful in that it is appropriate for the unoxidized magnetite-ulvospinel series as well as the oxidized 2+ spinels. Perhaps the most useful oxidation parameter is z = (number of Fe ions oxidized)/(initial number

2+

of Fe

).

A structurally significant aspect of the titanomaghemites is their cubicclose-packed oxygen framework, inherited from their titanomagnetite parents. Evidently the oxidizing oxygen is adsorbed to this framework and forms an extension of it, thereby creating new cation sites that are filled by diffusion of cations from the parent crystal (Sasajima, 1961, p. 201).

Sites in the

parent formerly occupied by the diffused cations become 2+ vacancies; 3+ and overall charge balance is maintained by the oxidation of two Fe oxygen added.

to Fe

for every

Note that the analytical data of Akimoto and Katsura (1959)—

which show that natural titanomagnetites retain 3+ their Fe/(Fe+Ti) ratios upon oxidation—demonstrate that the diffusing Fe ions must be retained in the overall expanded structure; if they were not the Fe/(Fe+Ti) ratio would change with oxidation.

In the absence of any detailed x-ray studies one assumes that

titanomaghemites do retain the spinel structure; it is possible, however, that all or some of the structures reported for maghemite (ordered vacancies, primitive cubic, tetragonal) may ultimately be found.

The most important aspect of

the structure that remains to be determined, therefore, is the distribution of cations plus vacancies in the 8a (tetrahedral) and 16d (octahedral) sites of the spinel structure. Several early models for cation distribution in titanomaghemites make use of assumed structural formulae for the hypothetical end member yFeTiO^» an approach that hindsight shows to be of little use.

Brookite is orthorhombic, whereas the others are both tetragonal, with

c/a < 1 for rutile and c/a > 1 for anatase. L-47

The first determination of the structures of rutile and anatase was made by Vegard (1916a,b), who observed that each could be considered as made up of O-Ti-O "molecules."

In rutile the O-Ti-O units lie in (001), but in anatase

they are parallel to [001]; Vegard considered this the explanation for the differences in c/a. The now more familiar view of these structures as sequences of coordination polyhedra was set forth by Pauling (1928; Pauling and Sturdivant, 1928).

In both structures Ti is coordinated by six oxygens, and each oxygen by

three titaniums; the difference is in the sequence of the coordination octahedra.

In rutile only two edges of the octahedra—those lying in (001)—are

shared (Fig. L-17), whereas in anatase four edges are shared (Fig. L-18). As would be expected, the shared edges are shorter than the unshared edges.

The

relationships between the "molecular" structures and the coordination structures are also illustrated in the figures.

In rutile the octahedra form chains paral-

lel to [001]; the chains are linked by the sharing of corners.

In anatase, on

the other hand, there are no distinct chains (Fig. L-18). On the basis of Vegard's data, Niggli (1921) assigned rutile to space group Pkylmnm and anatase to Ih^/amd", Parker (1923) provided an exhaustive confirmation of the latter assignment.

In each structure the Ti ions occupy unique

special sites, but the positions of the oxygen ions must be fixed by one experimentally determined parameter (Table L-10). Values of the unit cell

Microprobe analysis of coexisting (Usp-Mt) g s and Ilm in Speidel 1 s experiments indicated that Mg preferentially enters the magnetite, in contrast to most natural pairs in which Mg is enriched in the ilmenite.

Pinckney and

Lindsley (1976) studied the join hydrothermally at 700-1000°C using reversed exchange equilibria and found that Mg preferentially enters the ilmenite, the preference becoming more pronounced with decreasing temperature.

It is not

clear whether the discrepancy with Speidel's results is simply a temperature effect or whether his experiments may have failed to reach equilibrium.

Oxidation of discrete primary ilmenite Seven clearly defined oxidation assemblages emerge for ilmenites in the same suites of basalts and in the same specimens described for titanomagnetite above.

Examples of these assemblages are illustrated in Figures Hg-7-9, and

the classification of assemblages with progressive high temperature oxidation is as follows: 1) homogeneous ilmenite 2) ferrian ilmenite + ferrian rutile 3) ferrian rutile + (ferrian ilmenite) 4) rutile + titanohematite + ferrian rutile + ferrian ilmenite 5) rutile + titanohematite 6) rutile + titanohematite + (pseudobrookite) 7) pseudobrookite + (rutile + titanohematite) Although this is the most commonly observed sequence, an alternative sequence of ilmenite oxidation results in the formation of pseudobrookite directly, thus bypassing other intermediate assemblages.

Factors controlling

the development of either of these progressive sequences are largely temperature dependent and by implication, fg^ dependent; the former develops at lower temperatures and the latter at correspondingly higher temperatures (+ 800°C). Shielded ilmenite, or ilmenite which has remained unreacted at elevated temperatures, will follow the sequence of assemblages outlined above provided that levels of ÌQ2 are still sufficiently high and with the provision that slow cooling ensues.

Details of the seven stages of ilmenite oxidation observed optically are as follows; each stage is prefixed by R (rhombohedral) to distinguish this classification from the cubic (C) ulvospinel-magnetite classification.

Fine wisp-like sigmoidal lenses (1-5 um) of ferrian rutile

{0001} and {0111} parting planes of the ilmenite.

These lenses

generally develop in equal concentrations throughout the entire ilmenite crystal although aggregations towards the grain boundaries and along fractures are also present.

There is a tendency for lamellae parallel to {0001} to be

coarser than those developing along the rhombohedral planes, and by analogy with exsolution in ilmenite-hematitess these finer lenses may develop at lower temperatures and under conditions of lower diffusion activity (Fig. Hg-7b). The distribution of larger and smaller lenses, however, is not an ordered or seriate arrangement as is commonly the case in Ilm s s

With more advanced diffusion the lenses become thicker and There are slight changes in color from pale gray-white to

white as the lenses thicken, with marked increases in reflectivity, the appearance of white internal reflections, and a pronounced increase in anisotropy.

Lenses within any one crystallographic plane are in optical continuity,

are doubly terminated, and are relatively well defined at each of the progressive growth stages.

Ferrian rutile lenses are mantled by haloes of bleached

ferrian ilmenite that are gradationally lighter in color as the ferrian ilmenite host is approached. This variation in color is due in part to differential +2 +3 concentrations of Fe

and Fe

in the host, and in part to the concomitant

diffusion of Ti from the ferrian ilmenite to the ferrian rutile lamellae. The {0001} and {0111} lenses rarely intersect or continue along precisely the same planes for any distance; tapering occurs on contact and the sigmoidal form of the lenses gives rise to classic syneusis textures (Fig. Hg-7c-d). R4 stage.

This stage of ilmenite oxidation is considerably more complex

than the preceding stage or the stage that follows.

The assemblage is a four-

phase metastable assemblage comprising ferrian ilmenite, titanohematite, ferrian rutile and rutile.

The rhombohedral ferrian ilmenite and titanohematite

are present in approximately equal concentrations and constitute the host; ferrian rutile and rutile are present as sigmoidal lenses or as finely disseminated lamellae and these phases are oriented along presumed {0001} and {0111} planes of the original ilmenite. Hg-29

these planes is maintained, but there are marked reflectivity increases in both the host and the lamellar components when this assemblage is compared 2+ 3+ with the R3 assemblage. Diffusion rates and the redistribution of Fe , Fe and Ti are highly variable even within the limits of a single crystal, and as a consequence the compositions of phases are also highly variable.

The process

reflected in this four-phase metastable assemblage is the transition of ferrian ilmenite to titanohematite and of ferrian rutile to rutile (Fig. Hg-7e-3). B5 stage.

Rutile and titanohematite develop extensively at this stage of

This stage is represented by a simple two-

The titanohematite host is, in general, optically homog-

eneous and each grain has the properties of a single crystal.

Titanohematite

is considerably whiter, has a higher reflectivity and is more strongly anisotropic than its incipient counterpart in R4.

These properties result from an

and a loss of TiO^.

The ferrian rutile lenses are sharply

defined and crystallographically controlled along {0001} and {0111} parting planes.

These lenses are in optical continuity along their respective orien-

tations, are strongly anisotropic, and show distinct yellow or yellow-red internal reflections.

From a textural standpoint stages R3, R4 and R5 are

identical, insofar as each assemblage contains a member of the ilmenitehematite series and each assemblage is characterized by lenses of a Ti-rich oxide which are crystallographically controlled within the host. RS stage.

This stage is characterized by the development of P b ^ from

the R5 rutile-titanohematite assemblage.

In the incipient stages, pseudo-

brookite is concentrated along cracks and grain boundaries and gradually replaces the central-most regions of the grain by preferential migration along rutile lenses.

Both titanohematite and rutile participate in the reactions,

but the development of pseudobrookite in frond-like protuherances is most clearly controlled by the distribution and orientation of rutile (Fig. Hg-8 b-e).

Pseudobrookite develops as a result of solid-state diffusion and counter

diffusion of cations, with the addition of oxygen, between the rutile and the titanohematite.

Because the development of pseudobrookite is controlled by

pre-existing rutile and because of the compositional differences between the two primary phases, the resulting pseudobrookite is optically and compositionally heterogeneous.

The pseudobrookite is polycrystalline and varies

Hg-32

from pale to dark gray in color, being slightly darker in close proximity to rutile and lighter in regions adjacent to or in contact with titanohematite. These optical differences reflect higher TiC^ contents and correspondingly higher Fel^O^. contents in those pseudobrookites developing from nuclei of rutile.

Similarly, pseudobrookites which develop predominantly by excess

TiC^ diffusion into titanohematite result in an enriched Fe2TiO^ component. Variations in color are the dominant differences in these pseudobrookites; reflectivity and the degree of anisotropy are almost identical, as are the reddish internal reflections. The well-defined lensoidal texture of rutile is totally disrupted by the replacement of pseudobrookite.

Replacement is rarely complete and even in

the most advanced stages unreacted subgraphic inclusions of rutile and titanohematite tend to persist in the pseudobrookite host.

These inclusions are

neither ordered in distribution nor crystallographically controlled, which is a useful distinguishing textural feature between generative pseudobrookite (i.e. , Pt>ss from pre-existing assemblages) and pseudobrookite which is undergoing decomposition (to rutile + hematite^). R7 stage.

This is the most advanced stage of oxidation in the ilmenite

classification and is represented by the predominance of pseudobrookite (Fig. Hg-8f-h).

Intermediate stages between complete pseudomorphs and the R6 as-

semblage (ferrian rutile + titanohematite + pseudobrookite) are frequently observed in single polished sections; in fact, the entire spectrum from totally unoxidized ilmenite to pseudomorphs of pseudobrookite after ilmenite although common in many basalts are also occasionally present in single hand specimens. Somewhat similar optical and textural variations as those noted in R6 apply here.

Pseudobrookites are optically heterogeneous,and faint ghost-like

traces of original ferrian rutile are sometimes apparent; these relic lenses are particularly evident in crossed-nicols, and two distinct sets of extinction occur on rotation of the microscope stage.

Pseudobrookite generally consti-

tutes 80-90% of the pseudomorph, ferrian rutile is next in abundance, and titanohematite is a minor component or totally absent.

Ferrian rutile and

titanohematite occur as drop-like inclusions or as subgraphic intergrowths and show no preferred orientation in the pseudobrookite.

As noted in R6,

these textures do not result from the breakdown of pseudobrookite but simply reflect the incomplete formation of pseudobrookite from a pre-existing assemblage (viz. ferrian rutile + titanohematite). tion experiments on pseudobrookite

rutile + hematite^ or rutile + ilmenite^ develop along {100} or {110} planes as fine lamellae or as lenses in the pseudobrookite host; textures of this form do exist in basaltic ilmenite and must therefore result by decomposition at lower temperatures. An alternative oxidation trend to the seven stages described above are present in a small percentage of basalts and examples and are illustrated in Figure Hg-9.

In this trend Pb g s develop directly from ilmenite, and other in-

termediate assemblages are not observed except in these ilmenite crystals which are partially oxidized, or in ilmenites which have escaped initial oxidation.

The distinction between these trends appears to be temperature

dependent, with the direct formation of Pt>gs developing, at higher temperatures, and the rutile-titanohematite to Pb s g trend developing at somewhat lower temperatures (i.e., above 800°C and below 800°C).

The assemblage

rutile + titanohematite which may be present in partially reacted ilmenite is paragenetically later than Pb s g developing directly from ilmenite, suggesting that oxidation is not isothermal but is continuous with cooling. The fact that second generation Pt>ss (from rutile + titanohematite) are rarely observed in basalts displaying the direct formation of Pt>ss from ilmenite suggests furthermore that high temperature oxidation is kinetically rapid and that lower-temperature oxidation is expectedly sluggish. There are several distinctive features in pseudobrookites which develop at elevated temperatures: a) Crystals are a darker gray, rarely show the typical reddish internal reflections, have slightly higher reflectivities and are distinctly less anisotropic than those pseudobrookites associated with the indirect formation of Pb

from rutile + titanohematite. ss b) The major included phase in pseudobrookite is rutile.

A crude

lineation of bleb-like inclusions is sometimes present but generally no well-defined crystallographic ordering is apparent. c) The pseudobrookite pseudomorphs are either single crystals or are coarsely polycrystalline. d) Pseudobrookite is considerably more homogeneous and shows no preferred orientation in the ilmenite that it replaces. e) The directly formed Pb

The distinctions are in accord with experimental data for the join Fel^O,.Fe 2 Ti0 5 (Lindsley, 1967; Haggerty and Lindsley, 1970) and on heating experiments of natural ilmenites which confirm that the direct formation of Pb

PHASE CHEMISTRY OF OXIDATION ASSEMBLAGES

Introduction There are wide variations in the compositions of the oxidation assemblages which develop from primary titanomagnetite and from ilmenite. are dependent upon and result from:

These variations

(a) the composition of the initially crys-

tallizing magma; (b) the composition of the primary oxides; (c) the degree to which decomposition has proceeded; and (d) the absolute values of T°C and of initial crystallization and of deuteric cooling.

In most instances a

single variation is difficult to attribute to a single chemical or kinetic parameter but in order to outline in general the basic principles of oxide decomposition, a small but judicious choice of examples will be considered. These examples do not cover the entire, or the expected, compositional ranges of the assemblages discussed in the previous section, nor indeed does the choice address many of the outstanding problems in textural interpretation. Discussion is limited to the mineral chemistry of two basalts from Iceland, an olivine basalt from western Iceland (WA14-1), and a tholeiitic basalt from eastern Iceland (JS-10); two coarse-grained diabasic basalts from Oregon (DHL 296/69 and DHL 296/69); and a picritic basalt from Hawaii (H-5).

The

Iceland basalts are chosen because of their initial compositional variations, because both basalt samples contain a wide variation in oxidation assemblages and because JS-10 is one sample from a continuous sampling of a single lava profile displaying systematic oxidation variations from base to top.

The

Snake River plateau basalts illustrate an equally wide variation in oxidation assemblages, but the distinction for these samples is that oxidation can be demonstrated to be related to joints and contrasts with the Iceland examples where oxidation is particularly pervasive towards the central-most regions of lava flows.

The Hawaii sample is highly oxidized and although neither

Titanomagnetite-ilmenite

assemblages

Homogeneous titanomagnetite is absent in all samples, and the compositions of discrete primary ilmenite are remarkably similar for the Iceland basalts and for the Oregon basalt. MgO contents

The latter have slightly lower initial

(1 vs. 2 wt % MgO) and the former h a v e higher H e m s s

(8 vs. A wt % Fe20j).

contents

T h e first textural intergrowths to be considered are

titanomagnetite-ilmenite assemblages for ilmenite in trellis (T), sandwich (S) and composite (C) relationships.

For the Iceland basalts the m e a n MgO

contents of C, T, and S ilmenites in WA14-1 are 2.2, 2.7, and 2.6 wt X MgO respectively.

In terms of I ^ O ^ contents the C ilmenites contain the smallest

proportion of H e m g s >

the S ilmenites the maximum, and the T ilmenites are

intermediate between these two extremes. virtually identical.

Minor element concentrations are

For the second basalt

difference between T and C ilmenites

(JS-10) the only significant

(sandwich laths are absent) is the lower

Fe^Oj contents of trellis lamellae; this difference is the reverse of that shown for WA14-1 and is also m o r e pronounced.

The relatively unoxidized

Oregon basalt (DHL 295/69) has a range of MgO contents in T lamellae between 2.4 and 2.6 w t % whereas the C inclusions are close to 2 wt % MgO.

Ranges

in minor element concentrations are similar for b o t h T and C ilmenites. Trellis lamellae have an average i ^ O ^ content of 3.2 wt % and a range b e tween 3.2 and 5.3 wt %; the latter maximum value is clearly atypical and is restricted to a single grain.

Significantly different H e m ^

contents are

observed for the composite inclusions which fall into two populations: first has a m e a n F ^ O ^

the

2.2 wt X w h i c h is lower than the T lamellae and a

second w h i c h has a m e a n i ^ O ^ v a l u e of 6.2 w t X .

For these three basalts

two exhibit trellis compositions w h i c h are m o r e oxidized than the coexisting composite inclusions and the O r e g o n basalt suggests that some C inclusions m a y h a v e resulted by oxidation exsolution while others are primary precipitates.

This complex distribution is n o t at all atypical,and it is noteworthy

that the differences between discrete and intergrowth ilmenites and the differences among ilmenites in the second category are subtle.

Expectedly w i d e

variations in primary precipitated ilmenites from ilmenites w h i c h develop at subsolidus temperatures are in general not observed, except for MgO contents which tend to be higher in exsolved

ilmenites.

Turning our attention now to the magnetites w h i c h host these ilmenites we are confronted w i t h an equally complex distribution.

Dealing

firstly

w i t h WA14-1 w h i c h contains the three textural types of ilmenites, w e find satisfactorily that the titanomagnetites which coexist w i t h "exsolution"

Hg-46

trellis lamellae (Tm = trellis magnetite) are m o r e oxidized than those titanomagnetites w i t h either S (Sm) or C (Cm) inclusions, w h i c h are almost

identical.

N o t e also that significant differences are present in the Al^O^ contents of T m w h e n compared w i t h either of the Sm or the compositions of the C m (2.5 w t % for T m and 1.5-1.9 wt % for Cm and Sm).

M a g n e s i a is not as clearly defined:

Trellis and sandwich magnetites are similar (0.9 w t %) whereas composite magnetites are enriched in MgO

(1.3 wt %).

For the second basalt, JS-10,

the oxidation trend is repeated and is consistent w i t h WA14-1; namely, that magnetites hosting T ilmenites are m o r e highly oxidized and contain higher concentrations of Al^O^ than those hosting composite inclusions.

MgO con-

tents, a l t h o u g h different by a factor of two, are 1 wt % MnO.

Ferrian ilmenite and ferrian rutile This assemblage is characteristic of oxidation stages R2 and R3 for discrete ilmenite, and for stage C4 in the titanomagnetite classification.

In

general the assemblage—which is restricted to trellis, composite and sandwich intergrowths in titanomagnetite—is extremely fine grained, and individual mineral components are beyond the resolution of the electron microprobe.

A

comparison, therefore, of the assemblage ferrian ilmenite-ferrian rutile in titanomagnetite intergrowths is not possible with similar assemblages in discrete ilmenite.

Notwithstanding this limitation, the close proximities in

mineral compositions of the four ilmenite textural types still permit the basic compositional trends which are established for discrete ilmenite to be related to those which develop in titanomagnetite.

As noted previously, an

optical comparison of ilmenite in titanomagnetite with discrete ilmenite shows that the trellis lamellae are initially more susceptible to oxidation than other textural types, and from the composition of these lamellae the explanation for this difference is most probably related to higher Hem

ss tents since all other elements are in approximately equal concentrations.

con—

Assemblages of ferrian ilmenite + ferrian rutile are present in the two Iceland basalts, and the analyses quoted are respectively for grains with minor ferrian rutile (WA14-1) and for grains with abundent ferrian rutile (JS-10).

The assemblage is also present in the second more highly oxidized

Oregon basalt (DHL 296/69), and the data reported are for grains of approximately equivalent high ferrian rutile densities. teristics to be noted are as follows:

The compositional charac-

(1) For both samples the ferrian il-

menites are more highly oxidized and contain larger concentrations of MgO than their respective unoxidized counterparts; (2) grains containing lower densities of ferrian rutile (WA14-1) are less oxidized than grains with abundant ferrian rutile (JS-10), and the differences in MgO contents with respect to discrete ilmenite are proportionately larger for JS-10 (3.1 vs. 2.2 wt % MgO) and correspondingly smaller for WA14-1 (2.5 vs. 2.3 wt

MgO).

This MgO

enrichment is pronounced in the Oregon sample where the increase is a factor of four larger (1.0 vs. 3.8-4.1 wt % MgO) than that of discrete ilmenite; Hg-49

(3) partitioning characteristics of other minor elements (Cr^O^, A ^ O ^ , MnO) are ill defined for the Iceland samples, but noticeable increases in A ^ O ^ and MnO contents are evident for DHL 296/69.

The compositions of the ferrian ru-

tiles are variable and difficult to determine quantitatively because of x-ray excitation of the host ferrian ilmenite.

Qualitative estimates of the FeO

contents suggest a variation of between 5 and 10 wt % FeO, and minor element concentrations are equivalent to background levels.

The essential features

of ilmenite oxidation at this stage in the sequence are an increase in the hematite component, enrichments of MgO, MnO and A ^ O ^ in ferrian ilmenite, and a separation of the titanium-rich phase ferrian rutile. Titanohematite, rutile, and magnetite Titanohematite + rutile are characteristic of the R5 stage of ilmenite oxidation, and the assemblage titanohematite + rutile + accessory magnetite with exsolved aluminous magnesioferrite is characteristic of the C5 stage of titanomagnetite oxidation.

These assemblages are present in the two Iceland

basalts and in DHL 296/69. Considering firstly the decomposition products of discrete ilmenite (R5) we observe that the Ti02 contents of the hematite constituent are typically between 20 and 25 wt % TiO^, that MgO varies between 3 and 4 wt % and that MnO is in the range 1-1.5 wt %.

Compositions of rutile for this assemblage

in the Iceland samples show that minor concentrations of FeO are present (ss after ilmenite-free titanomagnetite in DHL 296/69. In WA14-1, Pb

cores after

discrete ilmenite, and the broad beam composition of this latter assemblage, which was discussed earlier, is plotted in Figure Hg-10 with the deduced titanohematite composition and with the composition of coexisting P b ^ .

The

discrepancies in composition are the result of incomplete reaction, but note that the R + Hem s s composition is precisely within the range of Pb crete, composite and trellis lamellae in DHL 296/69.

f° r dis-

These similarities are

applicable to most basalts, a result perhaps of narrow limits for T°C, fg2 and the composition of the oxidizing medium, with minor differences in initial chemistry playing a small but influential role in mineral stability. Data for pseudobrookites and titanohematites in the picritic basalt (H-5) are listed for three grains of oxidized titanomagnetites in Table Hg-4.

Grain

1 also contains Mg-Al magnetite + exsolved ferrian pleonaste, whereas in grains 2 and 3 the spinel assemblage has decomposed to form aluminous magnesioferrite. Differences in titanohematite compositions among these grains are as follows: The aluminum contents vary between 1.6 and 2 wt % A ^ O ^ ; magnesium contents in grain 1 (coexisting with magnetite) are similar to MgO contents in grain 3 adjacent to A1 magnesioferrite (2-2.6 wt %), but these are a factor of two

Hg-54

less than the MgO contents associated with P b s s (4 wt % MgO); TiO^ values vary between 4.6 and 10.4 wt %, and if stoichiometry is assumed, grain 1 titanohematites contain on the order of 5 wt % FeO whereas those in grains 2 and 3 approach zero; MnO contents in the less reacted grain 1 are and MgO during the growth of the chromite from the basaltic liquid (Figs. EG-6a, EG-7a).

These

chemical zonings may indicate precipitation of chromite from a silicate liquid with continuous build-up in A1 2 0 3 > V 2 0 3 , and MgO contents.

plagioclase and pyroxene and probably either before or during olivine precipitation.

Decrease in the FeO/(FeO+MgO) ratios of those spinels may, however,

be also due in part to subsolidus equilibration between Ti-chromite and host olivine, thus allowing considerable Mg diffusion from the olivine to the chromite.

Spinels displaying both gradational and sharp zoning and occurring

in the same basalts with early chromites are characterized by the second chemical trend (Figs. EG-6a, EG-7a).

Comparison between early spinels and this

spinel type indicates a distinct difference in textural features and chemical trends and thus puts important constraints on the behavior of basaltic liquids during cooling and crystallization.

The FFM initial ratio is usually higher

than that of the early chromites, indicating:

(a) Precipitation from a liquid

with higher FFM ratio and thus later in the crystallization sequence; and (b) the cooling basaltic liquid did indeed subsequently precipitate various chromite generations with various FFM ratios due to changes in its composition and at a certain cooling rate (El Goresy et at., 1976).

On the sides of the grains

with gradational zoning there is an increase in the TÍQ2/ ( T i C ^ + C ^ O ^ + A ^ O ^ ) ratio from core to rim from 0.02 up to 0.48 (Figs. EG-6a, EG-7a, EG-8a).

On

the other side of the grains with abrupt zoning, evidently, reaction took place between basaltic liquid and the Ti-rich outer rims thus corroding the spinels on this side down to the chromite core prior to new precipitation of the chromian ulvBspinel.

Compositional variation of chromian ulvüspinel rim on the

other side of the chromite with sharp contacts is usually chemically continuous with the outermost rims of the uncorroded side (Figs. EG-6b, EG-7b, EG-8b). The process of precipitation of Ti-chromite with gradational zoning followed by resorption of the Ti-rich layers could have taken place several times in the course of crystallization (e.g. Fig. EG-7b) and as much as three generations of Ti-chromites with various initial FFM ratio could be encountered in the same basalt.

Increase in the TiO^/(Ti02+Cr202+Al20^) ratio, decrease in

content, and increase in FFM ratio of these spinels may be indicative of co-precipitation with pyroxene but before massive crystallization of plagioclase took place.

Resorption of the Ti-rich zones of the same spinel should

result in an increase in the Cr concentration and to a lesser extent Ti-concentration of the basaltic liquid.

This slight but sudden increase in both

Cr and Ti concentrations may be reflected in the change of chemistry of the co-precipitating zoned pyroxene. The third chemical trend was encountered in olivine basalts and coarseand fine-grained pigeonite basalts. initial FFM ratio (0.80-0.85).

In the coarse-grained olivine and pigeonite

basalts the Ti-chromite cores are rounded and corroded indicating that likewise the second trend reaction between basaltic liquid and chromite took place.

In

olivine basalts with spinels indicative of this trend numerous spinels display both gradational and abrupt zoning.

The chemical trend on the continuously

zoned side is indicative of enrichment in the Fe 2 TiO^ end member just before termination of the overgrowth, yet the trend is distinct from the second type discussed above.

Cationic relationships and substitutions The coupled oxide relationships of the three chemical trends discussed above substantiate the application of zoning trends in spinels for a better understanding of the crystallization histories of mare basalts.

It is not our

intention to present a detailed treatment of distribution of the various cations among the tetrahedral and octahedral sites of the spinel structure. Rather important is the substitutional relationship in zoned individual spinel grains along with the zoning as a direct function of change in chemistry of the cooling basaltic liquid due to crystallization of silicate phases. Chromite, spinel and hercynite are structurally normal spinels with the trivalent cations (Cr,Al,V) octahedrally coordinated in the B site and the divalent cations (Fe,Mg) tetrahedrally coordinated in the A site.

In contrast,

ulvBspinel is an inverse spinel with half of the B sites occupied by tetravalent Ti and the divalent cations distributed among the A site and the other half of the B site. Cationic substitutions in a zoned spinel in the B site involving the trivalent cations Cr, Al and V are extremely sensitive to changes in the concentration of these elements in the liquid.

Changes in the substitutional trends

may signal the crystallization of a major phase like pyroxene (Cr,V) or plagioclase (Al).

Changes in the substitutional trends for the divalent cations Fe

and Mg are also dependent on changes in the relative concentration of these elements in the cooling liquid due to crystallization of olivine and/or pyroxene.

However, subsolidus equilibration between chromite inclusion and

olivine host may have slightly modified or even obscured the initial trends and such an effect cannot be ruled out.

Substitutional trends for the pairs

Cr-Al, Cr-V, Al-V, and Fe-Mg offer an accurate way to trace the crystallization sequence (El Goresy et al. , 1976).

However, the substitutional trends

of these pairs cannot be treated independently since precipitation of a major phase should be documented in the majority of trends involving the different pairs.

The Cr-Al substitutional ratio is a function of this ratio in the

liquid whereby decrease in Al reflects decrease of the concentration of this element in the liquid due to crystallization of plagioclase.

Decrease in the

Cr and V ratios, on the other hand, indicates crystallization of pyroxene.

Early chro-

mites in a coarse pigeonite basalt (Fig. EG11b) and an olivine basalt (Fig. EG-12b) show a unique trend that varies from core to rim from Cr/Al ratios of 4:1 to 2:1 and of 3:1 to 2:1, respectively (Figs. EG-llb, 2.40

These trends demonstrate that

early chromites in these two basalts grew from a liquid with continuous build-up of A1 and thus before crystallization of plagioclase.

The Cr/Al substitutional trend

for early chromites in both rocks is entirely different from the trends of other chromite generations and ulvbspinel.

However,

it is quite similar to the substitutional trend reported for MgAl^O^-rich spinels in Apollo 14 samples (Haggerty, 1972a).

Spinels

with the second chemical trend display a curved substitutional trend starting for 2.40

cores at a Cr/Al ratio of 4:1 with a steep

positive slope to 2:1 and with a sharp turn back to ratios higher than 4:1. This curvature was interpreted as indicative of change in the activities of

Cr^Oj and Al^O^ due to subsequent crystallization of pyroxene and plagioclase (El Goresy et at. , 1976). Along the first branch of this trend simultaneous crystallization of pyroxene and plagioclase is likely; however, the steep drop in Cr is indicative that at this stage pyroxene along with Ti-chromite was the main crystallizing phase.

The sharp

turn back to much lower Al concentration signals the entry of plagioclase as a major crystallizing phase RL

(Figs. EG-llc,EG-12c).

The Cr/Al

substitutional trend for chromian ulvospinel is indicative of crystallization from a liquid continuously depleted in both Cr and Al with the trend beginning at a Cr:Al ratio of 3:1, but changing continuously to a ratio lower than 2:1 for the outer rims of the ulvospinels.

Probably

at that stage of crystallization both pyroxene and plagioclase coprecipitated.

The crystallization

sequence deduced from the Cr-Al

EG-16

substitutional trends is also consistent with V/Cr, V/Al, and Fe/Mg substitutional trends for both rocks thus substantiating the application of these trends in zoned spinels as an indicator of the crystallization histories.

The conclu-

sions drawn from the analyses of the substitutional trends are in excellent agreement with experimental results obtained by Kesson (1975).

V-Cr and V-Al substitutional trends Though a trace element in spinels, vanadium is a valuable element because of its partitioning between chromite and ulv5spinel and its preference for 15555,42 EARLY SPINEL CATIONS 31 ANALYSES

Fe-Mg substitutional trends Several features can be recognized in the Fe-Mg substitutional trends shown in Figures EG-15 and EG-16.

All the substitutional trends observed in the Cr-Al,

V-Cr, V-Al diagrams are also encountered in the Fe-Mg relationships.

All Ti-

chromite and ulvospinel generations with various initial FFM ratios emerge. Early spinels again display a unique antipathetic trend with negative slope with increasing Mg substitutions for Fe from core to rim.

This trend very probably

indicates growth from a liquid with decreasing FFM ratio.

Haggerty argued

(1972a,b,c) that the divalent Fe versus Mg relationship is poor to totally incoherent and that distinct linear slopes do emerge if the Ti content of the spinels is considered.

Each slope proposed by Haggerty would correlate spinel

compositions with similar TiO^/(TiC^+C^O^+A^Oj) ratios.

This attempt does not

reflect the real substitutional trend and even obscures the Fe-Mg relationship in the zoned spinels.

This conclusion is demonstrated in Figures EG-15 and EG-

16, where vertical trends with sharply increasing Fe substitution for Mg from core to rim for the later Ti-chromite and chromian ulvospinel generations are evident.

In fact, these steep trends cross the several slope lines for compo-

sitions with various Ti-contents proposed by Haggerty.

Furthermore, slopes

constructed for compositions with similar Ti-content connect spinels of the various generations crystallized at different times and the relationship observed for early spinels would then completely disappear.

The Fe-Mg substi-

tutional trends of the second zoning trend demonstrate a continuous increase in the FFM ratio of the liquid after precipitation of olivine (El Goresy et al. , 1976).

Ti-(V+Cr+Al) substitutions The Ti-(V+Cr+Al) substitutional ratio displays the occupancy in the B site in the normal-inverse solid solution series of tetravalent and trivalent cations.

Non-stoichiometry of the spinels should cause a departure of the data

points from the

8

(Ti) to the 16 (V+Cr+Al) ratio.

No evidence of departure

from the 8:16 ratio was found and hence cation deficiency is questionable (Nehru et al., 1974; El Goresy et al. , 1976) (Fig. EG-17).

Neglecting to

include V and Si in the spinel analyses is responsible for speculation that either the B site is deficient or there is increase in the octahedral site occupancy for divalent cations. The Luna 16 mare type basalts are characterized by their high A ^ O ^ content (^16%).

Spinel analysis in these rocks indicate similar compositional

variation trends to Apollo 12 and Apollo 15 basalts (Haggerty, 1972). EG-19

they are characterized by considerable solid solution towards FeAl^O^ and MgAl^O^ (Fig. EG-18).

Evidently, these spinels crystallized from a liquid

with high but continuously decreasing Al concentrations (Fig. EG-19) as documented by the sharp decrease in the Al/Cr ratio.

This may indicate that in

comparison to Apollo 12 and 15 basalts, anorthitic plagioclase and pyroxene co-precipitated from the Luna 16 magmas (Bence et al. , 1972).

Continuous

crystallization of anorthitic plagioclase would explain the continuous and drastic decrease in the Al/Cr ratio.

Spinel compositions from various basalt

types from Apollo 12, Apollo 15 and Luna 16 sites are shown in Table EG-1. Ilmenite textures in basalts of the three landing sites are quite similar (Haggerty, 1971; El Goresy et al. , 1971).

The concentration of geikielite is

usually in direct relationship with the total MgO content of the rock, e.g. , high geikielite concentrations in rocks with high MgO content.

Ilmenite in

the majority of the Ti02~poor basalts is usually late in the crystallization sequence probably after the late Cr-ulvospinel.

Opaque oxides in TiO^-rich basalts TiC^-rich basalts were collected during the Apollo 11 and 17 flights from Mare Tranquillitatis and the Taurus-Littrow Site, respectively.

These high-

titanium basalts were formed in the period from 3.82 to 3.55 G.Y. and are mainly confined to the eastern half of the side of the moon facing the earth. Textural variations and compositional similarity among the Taurus-Littrow hightitanium basalts are suggestive of a similar source for both landing sites (LSPET, 1974).

The TiO^-rich basalts can be classified into two major types:

(1) plagioclase poikilitic ilmenite basalts; and (2) olivine porphyritic ilmenite basalts.

So far, the first basalt type was not encountered in the Apollo

11 site and is restricted to the Apollo 17 samples. tered in the studied basalts are:

The opaque oxides encoun-

ilmenite, armalcolite, chromian u1vospinel,

secondary titanian chromite, and rutile.

Of special interest are textural re-

lationships between armalcolite and the coexisting silicates and opaque oxides in the different rocks as well as variations of armalcolite chemistry and opaque oxides in the different rocks.

Armalcolite in the two different major rock

types show differences in their Cr and Fe/Mg ratios. Armalcolite relationships Two optically different armalcolite types were reported in several Apollo 17 basalts (Haggerty, 1973; El Goresy et at. , 1974):

(a) a grey variety usu-

ally mantled by Mg-rich ilmenite present in olivine porphyritic ilmenite basalts; and (b) a tan variety encountered in medium- and coarse-grained plagioclase poikilitic ilmenite basalts.

Preliminary investigations indicated

that the grey armalcolite shows higher MgO and Cr^O^ contents than the tan variety and this may be responsible for the difference in color (El Goresy et al. , 1973).

Smyth and Brett (1973) demonstrated that the two armalcolite

types are indistinguishable in terms of crystal structure ruling out the possibility that the types are different polymorphs.

Their study, however, showed

similar differences in MgO and C^O^ contents as reported by El Goresy et al. (1974).

Textural relationships of armalcolite-bearing assemblages in Apollo

11 Ti02_rich basalts indicate that only the grey variety mantled by Mg-rich ilmenite is present.

Apollo 17 plagioclase poikilitic ilmenite basalts do not

have equivalents in the Apollo 11 landing site.

Papike et al. (1974) report

that armalcolite morphology in olivine porphyritic and plagioclase poikilitic ilmenite basalts is due to local variation in silicate crystallization rather than to major paragenetic differences.

According to El Goresy et al. (1974)

there are indeed differences in the paragenetic sequence between plagioclase EG-24

poikilitic and olivine porphyritic basalts.

These textural and paragenetic

differences are outlined below. 1.

Plagioclase poikilitic ilmenite basalts: This rock type is charac-

terized by the presence of two pyroxenes:

(a) titanaugite with sectoral

zoning and (b) pigeonite as single crystal overgrowths on augite (Hodges and Kushiro, 1974).

Olivine and Cr-ulvospinel were among the first minerals to

crystallize followed by tan armalcolite followed by titanaugite and pigeonite. Ilmenite, plagioclase and then cristobalite were the last minerals to crystallize.

Armalcolite occurring in these rocks is only of the tan variety and is

exclusively present as inclusions in the titanaugite (Fig, EG-20); occasionally, it is present with ilmenite in sealed grain boundaries with armalcolite morphology (Haggerty, 1973).

The dominant feature, however, is the idiomorphic

blocky appearance of armalcolite crystal clusters occurring only in the cores of titanaugite.

In these rocks massive ilmenite precipitation started after

the majority of the pyroxenes crystallized.

In none of the studied fragments,

regardless of their grain size, were ilmenite reactions rims around armalcolite observed, although Papike et al. (1974) report ilmenite reaction rims in sample

The above-described crystallization path is not dependent on the

cooling rate.

The few exceptions reported by Papike et al. do not negate the

crystallization sequence described above. 2.

Olivine porphyritic ilmenite basalts: These rocks are characterized

by the presence of olivine phenocrysts (partially as a quench phase) with Crulvospinel inclusions.

These two minerals, as in the plagioclase poikilitic

basalts, were the first phases to crystallize (El Goresy et at. , 1974).

Both

In coarse-grained rocks olivine and armal-

The textures in both Apollo 11 and Apollo 17

samples are identical. Two main features differentiate the two rock types. a.

Olivine porphyritic ilmenite basalts contain only the grey armalcolite variety regardless if armalcolite is mantled by ilmenite or not.

b.

In olivine porphyritic ilmenite basalts, ilmenite precipitated directly after armalcolite, whereas in plagioclase poikilitic ilmenite basalts, ilmenite crystallized after the major part of titanaugite and pigeonite precipitated.

In olivine porphyritic ilmenite basalts the majority of the armalcolite grains are surrounded by ilmenite rims. tle vary from grain to grain.

Shape and width of the ilmenite man-

Usually, the armalcolite grains are surrounded

by continuous ilmenite mantles (Fig. EG-21) and the composite grain still displays armalcolite morphology.

The origin and shape of the mantling ilmenite

will be discussed separately in detail in a later section. The above-described differences between the two rock types, especially the presence of two pyroxenes in plagioclase poikilitic basalts and the inverted pyroxene-ilmenite crystallization sequence in the olivine porphyritic basalts, regardless of the grain size of the rock, is suggestive of different mehcanisms other than cooling rate to explain these features. Origin of ilmenite rims around amalcolite in olivine porphyritic basalts Studies in reflected light on numerous basalt samples (El Goresy et al., 1974; Papike et al. , 1974) indicate that the ilmenite mantles around grey armalcolite grains are formed according to one or a combination of the following processes: 1.

The majority of the above-described processes may be present in the same basalt sample in Apollo 11 and Apollo 17 material. 1.

The reaction between the cooling basaltic liquid and armalcolite is

evidently the major process responsible for the formation of ilmenite rims around armalcolite in the TiC^-rich basalts of the Taurus-Littrow and Apollo 11 sites (Lindsley et al., 1974; El Goresy et al. , 1974).

Ilmenite formed

due to this reaction was apparently enriched in TiO. in contrast to primary

EG-2 7

ilmenites p r e c i p i t a t e d directly f r o m the basaltic liquid, since the ilmenite mantles usually show numerous rutile inclusions w h i c h probably exsolved on cooling.

M a n y armalcolite grains show reactions only on certain sides, namely

w h e r e the b a s a l t i c liquid had a free p a t h to the armalcolite crystal (El Goresy et at.,

1974; P a p i k e et at. , 1974).

This feature is indeed strong evidence

that reaction (1) is responsible for the formation of the ilmenite rims around armalcolite.

I n the fine-grained vitrophyres a few armalcolite grains display

no or little r e a c t i o n although these armalcolites w e r e n o t protected by other silicates.

This could b e due to the v e r y fast cooling of the basaltic liquid

and the deposition of pyroxene a n d plagioclase quench crystals before the reaction started. 2.

Textures strongly suggestive of reaction (2) w e r e observed in a few

lithic fragments a n d large basalts from the Apollo 17 landing site.

In an

ideal case p u r e ulvbspinel w o u l d react w i t h armalcolite to form ilmenite according to the equation F e 2 T i 0 4 + FeTi^Oj

3FeTiC>3

Since ulvbspinel in the A p o l l o 17 basalts is in a b r o a d sense a member of ulvospinel-chromite solid solution series, secondary titanian chromite w i l l p r e c i p itate

in a d d i t i o n to ilmenite as a result of this reaction.

Thus, the chromian

ulvbspinel w i l l change its composition according to the degree of the reaction. Normally, the boundaries of the original ulvbspinel grain are still visible (Fig. EG-22) w h e r e b y the newly formed chromite deposited b e t w e e n ulvbspinel and ilmenite.

I n advanced stages the reaction is also accompanied by exsolu-

tion of ilmenite f r o m the host ulvbspinel (Fig. EG-23).

The chromite is con-

fined to ulvbspinel boundaries w h e r e the reaction w i t h armalcolite took place. Drastic enrichment in MgAl^O^ in the secondary spinel took p l a c e due to this reaction (20.5 w t . % Al^O^ versus 9.3% in the original ulvbspinel).

Ilmenites

formed due to this reaction w e r e also probably rich in TiOj, since rutile exsolved from the ilmenites. 3.

same lithic fragment.

The total cations (Ti is calculated as Ti^+) are also

slightly lower than those of coexisting armalcolites. 4. Pure ferropseudobrookite (FeTi^O^) decomposes to ilmenite and rutile at and below 1140 + 10°C (Harzman and Lindsley, 1973). Harzman and Lindsley also report that armalcolite of a given Fe/Mg ratio decomposes first to Mgenriched armalcolite + ilmenite + rutile.

This breakdown requires the presence

of ilmenite and rutile in almost 1:1 ratio.

Apollo 11 and 17 basalts were in-

spected for this reaction and only very few grains of armalcolite in the 17 material were found mantled by ilmenite and rutile satisfying this reaction. The breakdown of armalcolite to rutile + ilmenite is, however, a common phenomenon in Apollo 11 TiC^-rich basalts. 5.

In olivine porphyritic ilmenite basalts, ilmenite precipitates after

armalcolite and before titanaugite.

According to this crystallization sequence

simple overgrowths of ilmenite around pre-existing armalcolite should be expected in these rocks.

An important criterion to recognize this texture is that the

composite ilmenite-armalcolite grain does not show any resemblance to the armalcolite morphology.

However, this kind of overgrowth is quite rare compared to

reactions 1, 2, and 3. Study of equilibrium pjiase relations of synthetic TiC^-rich basalts as a function of oxygen fugacity (fc^) indicates that there is a direct relationship between the crystallization sequence and fo2 f o r basaltic liquids with the same composition (Usselman et al. , 1975).

The observed difference in the composi-

tion of armalcolites and the reversal of ilmenite and pyroxene in the crystallization sequence in plagioclase poikilitic and olivine porphyritic basalts was found to be a function of fOj (Usselman et al. , 1975) (Fig. EG-24).

Chemistry

of

armalcolite

Haggerty (1973) reports that tan armalcolite and gray armalcolite are compositionally indistinguishable in terms of major element abundances.

More

than 400 complete analyses (El Goresy et al. , 1974) strongly suggest that both tan and gray armalcolite are cation deficient since the number of cations calculated on the basis of 5 oxygens never totalled 3. The total number of cations for all armalcolites analyzed range from 2.91 to 2.97. According to Lind and Housley (1972) and Smyth (1973), armalcolite crystallizes in the space 4+ group Bbmm with the cations strongly ordered whereby Ti cations occupy the 8f(M„) and Fe2+ and Mg2+ cations are randomly distributed among the 4C(M1) 2+ sites. Following this model, the majority of the analyses revealed that Fe and Mg 2+ do not satisfy the 4C site occupancy since they never totalled 1,

although there is a full complement of almost two Ti cations per five oxygens 3+ (El Goresy et at. , 1974). Smyth suggested that Ti may be present as Ti and 2+ 3+ perhaps Cr as Cr . Wechsler et at. (1975) calculated 4-10% Ti, TiO- compo3+ nent for many lunar armalcolites, thus supporting the presence of Ti rather than cation deficiency of the armalcolite structure. The gray armalcolite variety is characterized by relatively higher Cr^O^ and MgO contents than the tan variety (El Goresy et at., Papike et at. et at.

1974).

However,

(1975) indicate that many gray armalcolites are zoned.

Papike

report a decrease in C ^ O ^ and increase in FeO content from the core

to the rim of an armalcolite grain.

The compositional variation of a zoned

crystal was found to overlap a major part of the separate fields assigned for tan and gray armalcolite. The Mg versus Fe and Mg versus Cr cationic distributions for tan and gray armalcolites are shown in Figures EG-25 and EG-26, respectively. tant features are recognized:

Two impor-

(a) There is indeed a compositional bimodal

distribution of tan and gray armalcolites with slight overlap of the fields; (b) the Mg-Fe substitutional relationship for the tan armalcolite variety is almost coherent with a negative slope, indicating that Fe is substituting for Mg.

Probably, in analogy to olivine, armalcolites which crystallized earlier

from the silicate melt have a higher Mg/Fe ratio than those crystallized later.

The gray armalcolites, regardless if they are mantled by ilmenite or

not, show generally higher Mg concentrations than tan armalcolite. EG-31

to tan armalcolite the Mg-Fe substitutional relationship of the gray armalcolite is not coherent.

This scatter was interpreted (El Goresy et al. , 1974) as due

to enrichment of armalcolite in Mg resulting from reactions 1, 2, 3, or A described above.

Electron microprobe analyses indicate such strong preference

of Mg for armalcolite rather than for mantling ilmenite (El Goresy et al. , 1974). The compositional bimodality is also demonstrated in Figure EG-26 which shows the Mg-Cr substitutional relationship for both armalcolite types.

Despite

the scatter in the data points for tan armalcolite, this figure is suggestive of a positive relationship between Mg and Cr.

The Mg-Cr substitutional relation-

ship for gray armalcolite is coherent, indicating that these two elements have similar partitioning behavior.

Armalcolites in olivine porphyritic basalts have

higher MgO and C^O^ contents than tan armalcolites.

The data presented here are

also strongly suggestive of a partitioning of Mg and Cr between armalcolite and mantling ilmenite with strong preference of these elements for armalcolite.

Il-

menite rims around gray armalcolite cores were also analyzed with the microprobe (El Goresy et al., 1974), and the suggested partitioning is confirmed in the plot of MgO in armalcolite MgO in mantling ilmenite (Fig. EG-27).

C ^ O j in armalcolite C ^ O j in mantling ilmenite

The coherent positive slope of the data points indicates a

preference of both Mg and Cr for armalcolite.

This slope, however, may not

represent the actual partitioning relationship between armalcolite and the mantling ilmenite, since the majority of the ilmenite mantles exsolved rutile after their formation which may have caused an additional redistribution of

both Cr and Mg between ilmenite and rutile.

The partitioning of Cr and Mg

between ilmenite and rutile does not necessarily need to be similar to the partitioning of these two elements between armalcolite and ilmenite.

Thus,

gray armalcolite shows higher Mg and Cr concentrations than tan armalcolite. Reflection measurements on numerous armalcolite types from several Apollo 17 basalts indicate that the reflection curves of tan armalcolite show a continuous increase above 600 nm compared to a flat curve for gray armalcolite. This is responsible for the difference in color.

Chromian ulvospinel Chromian ulvSspinel occurs in both basalt types not only as idiomorphic crystals but also as clusters of grains enclosed in olivine or pyroxene. both rock types ulvospinel is probably an early quench phase.

In

In coarse-

grained ilmenite basalts this early crystallized ulvospinel was not encountered; instead, tiny discrete late-stage ulvospinel grains were observed in the mesostasis.

The early crystallized ulvospinels in Apollo 17 basalts

resemble the Apollo 11 ulvospinel since their composition is intermediate EG-3 4

between chromite and ulvospinel.

The Apollo 17 ulvospinels, however, show con-

siderable solid solution towards M g A l ^ (Fig. EG-28).

Ilmenite Ilmenite is the most abundant opaque mineral both in Taurus-Littrow and Apollo 11 basalts.

The amount of ilmenite in the studied samples range from

15% to 20% by volume.

Ilmenite occurs in both rock types as primary blocky

crystals and in olivine porphyritic basalts as reaction rims around armalcolite formed according to processes 1, 2, 3 or 4 as described above.

This latter

ilmenite type is designated secondary ilmenite to distinguish it from the former primary ilmenite which precipitated directly from the silicate melt. The majority of ilmenite formed by processes 1 and 2 show numerous rutile inclusions exsolved from the TiO^-rich secondary ilmenite on cooling.

Analy-

ses of primary and secondary ilmenites formed by processes 1 and 2 indicate a systematic difference in the composition of both ilmenites (El Goresy et at. , 1974).

Secondary ilmenites were found to contain significantly higher Cr^O^

contents (0.93-1.05%) than coexisting primary ilmenites (0.39-0.65%).

EG-3 5

Rutile Rutile occurs mainly as exsolution lamellae, as a product of reaction 4 described above, or is formed due to subsolidus reduction of magnesian chromian ilmenite to rutile + spinel + metallic Fe (El Goresy et al. , 1975).

Many of

these rutile grains show anomalous optical properties with prominent bireflection and anisotropism and a typical blue reflection color (El Goresy et al., 1975).

These features are characteristic of oxygen-deficient rutile.

The

majority of rutile grains were found to be highly enriched in ZrO^ (Table EG-3) regardless if they were formed by exsolution or subsolidus reduction reaction (El Goresy et al. , 1975). Table EG-3.

Opaque oxides in anorthositic rocks and highland breccias On the basis of the occurrence of a few anorthositic lithic fragments in Apollo 11 fines, Wood et al. (1970) proposed that the Highlands of the moon are largely composed of anorthosite.

Prinz et al. (1973) demonstrated that

the anorthositic rocks range in composition and mineralogy from anorthositic to noritic and troctolitic. of the lunar crust.

These rocks very probably constitute a major part

Due to continuous bombardment of the lunar surface in the

past, the original textures of the rocks of this group are obscured and altered. Rocks belonging to this group were collected at the Luna 20 landing site (in the area of Apollonius C crater), Apollo 16 at the Descartes site, and at the EG-36

Apollo 14 (Fra Mauro) site.

Two major rock suites were recognized in the sam-

ples collected from the three landing sites (Prinz et at. , 1973b). 1.

ANT (anorthositic-noritic-troctolitic) suite which could be subdivided

to anorthosites, norites, and (spinel) troctolite). 2.

High-alumina basalt suite (> 45% < 60% plagioclase).

Opaque oxide minerals are rare and generally fine grained.

They also occur as

discrete rounded to angular grains in microbreccias and agglutinates and as rare euhedral to anhedral grains in crystalline fragments (El Goresy et at., 1973; Brett et at., 1973; Haggerty, 1973).

In the ANT suite members of the spinel

series are the most abundant opaque oxides followed by ilmenite and rutile. In the high-alumina basalt suite, ilmenite is quite frequent, usually occurring in the assemblages ilmenite-rutile-baddeleyite (Zr02) and ilmenite-rutile-baddeleyite-chromite (El Goresy et at. , 1973).

Spinets Two distinct spinel types occur in the highland rock suites:

(a) Members

of the spinel (MgA^O^-hercynite (FeAl^O^) series mainly encountered in the ANT suite, especially in spinel troctolites (Brett et at., 1973). ranges from 93 to 56 mole % MgAl^O^ (Brett et at. , 1973). ized by a low Ti02~content (0.02-1.0 wt %).

Their composition

They are character-

A minor amount of the chromite

component is also present but their compositions are clearly separated from the chromite-ulvospinel solid solution series.

(b) Members of the chromite-

ulvospinel series occurring as a minor component in the ANT suite but more abundant in the high-alumina basalt.

Although no optical zoning was observed

in these spinels, quantitative electron microprobe analyses indicate a zonational trend similar to the third trend present in mare-type basalts (El Goresy et at., 1973).

The zoning trend of these spinels shows, however, a sharp in-

crease in the C^Oj/(Cr^Oj+Al^O^) ratio from core to rim (El Goresy et at. , 1973) (Fig. EG-29).

The Cr/Al cationic relationship is similar to that found

in Luna 16 rocks (Haggerty, 1973).

Itmenite Ilmenites encountered in highland rocks contain appreciable amounts of the geikielite component just as do those from mare basalts.

The MgO-content

of ilmenite varies between 0.02 and 8 wt % (Brett et at., 1973).

Rutite Rutile is usually confined to oriented lamellae and irregular areas in

SUBSOLIDUS REACTIONS

Lunar rocks differ from the majority of terrestrial counterparts mainly in their extremely low oxygen fugacities.

This feature is manifested by the

ubiquitous occurrence of metallic iron as a primary phase, the presence of textures suggestive of subsolidus reduction, and the extremely low amount of 3+ Fe

in silicate and oxide minerals.

Very probably, many of the lunar magmas

were already in a reduced state at the time of extrusion (Sato et at. , 1973). Considerable variation in the intensity of reduction has been reported among rocks of the same landing site (El Goresy et at. , 1972; Haggerty, 1972a) reflecting the complexity of the formation history of the lunar rocks and supporting the existence of various mechanisms for reduction.

An attempt to understand the

processes responsible for reduction reactions is due to Mao et at. (1974), who demonstrated that trapped solar wind hydrogen is probably an important reducing agent on the surface of the moon, especially during the flow of basaltic liquid on hydrogen-enriched regolith. EG-3 8

Subsolidus reduction reactions in the lunar rocks Evidence for five subsolidus reactions for which experimentally-determined buffer curves exist

was reported from the lunar samples of all landing sites.

The experimentally-determined buffer curves involve the following reactions (Sato et al., 1973; Williams., 1971; Taylor et al., 1972; Lindsley et al., 1974): 1.

In applying these reactions, only estimations of the degree of reduction and temperature can be made, since the reduced lunar minerals are by no means pure compounds as compared to the experimentally-investigated synthetic phases. Furthermore, the host minerals subjected to reduction change their composition continuously as the reaction proceeds to the right-hand side of the above equations.

These compositional variations were reported by El Goresy et al.

(1972) and Haggerty (1972a) who demonstrated that chromian ulvBspinel changes its composition continuously upon subsolidus reduction to become enriched in the chromite component.

In comparison to equation 2, lunar magnesian ilmenites

break down to rutile + spinel + Fe (Haggerty, 1973a).

The activity of Fe 2 SiO^

in lunar fayalite decreases continuously upon reduction to Fe + Si02-

Host

ilmenite also changes its composition to become enriched in the geikielite component.

Reactions 4 and 5 were found to be induced upon flow of basaltic

liquid on regolith loaded with solar wind hydrogen (Mao et al., 1974) and hence are regarded as exogenic reactions.

The reduction described by Mao et al.

(1974) indicates that extensive reduction of lunar basalts probably first took place on the surface of the moon during the eruption process. Figure EG-30 displays schematically the oxygen fugacity curves of the univariant reactions listed above, after Sato et al. (1973) and Taylor et al. (1972), and extrapolated down to 700°C.

Among the univariant reactions de-

scribed, the I-Q-F curve holds a key position.

The quartz-fayalite-iron

(I-Q-F) univariant curve intersects the ulvbspinel-ilmenite-iron (Fe-il-uv) curve at 950C and the ilmenite-rutile-iron (Fe-ru-il) curve at roughly 830°C (Taylor et al. , 1972).

Any understanding of the temperature and reduction his-

tory of the lunar samples requires the study of all assemblages involved in the first three reactions.

considered to be the most reduced basalts, due to the presence of the breakdown of fayalite to silica + Fe in addition to the extensive reduction of chromian ulvospinel to Ti-chromite + ilmenite + Fe (El Goresy et al., 1972; Haggerty, 1972a).

Taylor et al. (1972) conclude from their experimental investigations

that the presence of fayalite reduction in these two samples is direct evidence that these two rocks have undergone more reducing conditions than any other rocks, terrestrial or lunar

reported from Apollo 11 through Apollo 14.

A

comparison between the breakdown assemblages in these two rocks and in several TiO^-rich basalts from the Taurus-Littrow region as well as the application of the first three reactions negates a severe reduction.

Table EG-4 displays the

assemblages involved in the univariant reactions 1 to 3 in sample 14053 as compared to assemblages in Apollo 17 samples 70017, 70035, and 70135.

between the assemblages in 14053 and in the three Apollo 17 basalts strongly suggests that the rocks of the two landing sites had different thermal histories.

Very probably, samples 14053 and 14072 were subjected to reduction

during a heating event to a temperature in excess of 830°C and/or close to 950°C.

A mechanism of reduction upon heating to these temperatures at the

given oxygen fugacity explains best the simultaneous breakdown of fayalite to Fe + silica and ulvBspinel to ilmenite + Fe.

Incipient breakdown of ilmenite

to rutile + Fe may suggest that the opaque fayalite assemblages were placed below the Fe-ru-il fugacity curve above 830°C and very probably close to 950°C in order to account for the extensive subsolidus reduction of both fayalite and chromian ulvbspinel followed by rapid cooling, thus preventing further ilmenite breakdown.

Textures and mineralogy of sample 14053 do not support

reduction during an initial cooling process.

Fayalite in this sample always

occurs in a mesostasis assemblage, which is widely accepted to be the last assemblage to crystallize from the silicate melt.

Reduction of fayalite must

have taken place after solidification of the mesostasis assemblage, since the breakdown texture still displays the morphology of fayalite grains (El Goresy et al. , 1972). Apollo 17 samples 70017, 70035, and 70135 display extensive subsolidus reduction of chromian ulvospinel to Al-Ti chromite + ilmenite + Fe and of Mg ilmenite to Al-Ti chromite + rutile + Fe.

Accessory fayalite in these samples

does not show any sign of reduction to Fe + silica.

On the basis of the per-

vasive reduction of ilmenite alone, and neglecting fayalite (El Goresy et al. , 1972; Taylor et al., 1972; Haggerty, 1972a), one may conclude that these samples were severely reduced.

Such a conclusion is unrealistic.

The three as-

semblages shown in Table EG-4 suggest that the reduction of these rocks took place below 830°C, probably during cooling.

These assemblages may have been

reduced to a fQ^ below the Fe-ru-il curve, but above the I-Q-F curve.

This

is only possible below 830°C, where the fayalite buffer curve intersects the ilmenite buffer curve. It is worthwhile to mention that the above-given temperatures are subject to some correction since the activities of Fe„TiO. and FeTiO, in the lunar 2 4 3 ulvospinel and ilmenite, respectively, are by no means equal to 1. Haselton and Nash (1975) discussed a model (formerly proposed by Lindsley et al. , 1974) of isochemical reaction of opaque oxides with part of Ti present 3+ as Ti

in the initial phases to explain the subsolidus reactions observed.

An important aspect of this model is the fact that the components of the assemblages are indeed not in their standard states. EG-41

Such a system would display

deviation from ideality.

This deviation from stoichiometry indicates that the

f02 curve will not be a straight line.

Experimental studies in the system Fe-

Ti-0 with assemblages coexisting with metallic Fe

(Simons, 1973) indeed indi-

cate a compositional variation as a function of temperature.

The mechanism

presented by Haselton and Nash (1975) could explain the textures in the assemblage armalcolite-ilmenite-rutile-Fe°.

However, it could hardly explain the 3+ breakdown features of chromian ulv8spinel since Ti was not detected in an ulvospinel-magnetitess coexisting with metallic Fe° between 1000 and 1300°C (Simons, 1974). Nature of reducing agent in Apollo 17 basalts The causes for the reduction of lunar basalts have been a subject of debate since recovery of the Apollo 11 samples.

Several mechanisms were proposed:

(1)

internal redistribution of valence of states of Fe, Ti, and Cr by assuming in3+ 2+ itial presence of Ti and Cr in the melt (Brett et at., 1971,1972); (2) vacuum pumping of oxygen (O'Hara et at.,

1970; Biggar et at.,

1971; Ford et

at.,

2-

1972; Haggerty, 1972a); (3) sulfur loss from lunar magmas as S

(Brett, 1975);

(4) alkali volatilization from lunar magmas during extrusion (O'Hara et 1970; Biggar et at.,

1971,1972, Ford et at.,

at.,

1972; (5) reduction by carbon or

carbon monoxide at a depth shallower than a few kilometers (Sato et at.,

1973).

Vacuum pumping of oxygen could never be a plausible cause of reduction because of the preferential escape of Fe vapor at low oxygen fugacities (Sato et at. , 1973).

Nor could alkali loss explain the reduced state of the lunar

basalts since escape of alkalis as elements would cause oxidation, whereas volatilization of alkalis as oxides (Na20) would not change the oxidation state of lunar basalts (Sato et at. , 1973).

The mechanisms of sulfur loss from lunar

magmas or of redistribution of the valence of states of Fe, Ti, and Cr may well explain the precipitation of metallic iron from the lunar basaltic liquids, but they are unable to account for subsolidus reduction reactions of iron-titanium oxide assemblages. El Goresy et at.

(1975) propose that gaseous activity took place after

solidification of the lunar basalts.

They found evidence for genetic relation-

ship between this gaseous activity and subsolidus reactions of the opaque oxides. Many of the open cracks penetrating silicate and oxide minerals as well as cleavage in pyroxenes in several Apollo 12, Apollo 15, and Apollo 17 samples were found to be filled with metallic iron.

The metallic iron forms a network

system of veins across several mineral grains along several hundred microns. El Goresy et at.

(1975) believe that these features exclude the possibility

EG-4 2

that iron liquid has been injected in the crack system.

These observations can

be explained as due to deposition of iron from a gaseous phase which permeated these rocks after crystallization.

Ilmenite grains penetrated by such iron-

filled cracks display textures typical of subsolidus reduction to spinel + rutile + Fe°. These reduction products always originate from the cracks radiating into the ilmenite grains.

El Goresy et al. (1975) consider these features as strongly

suggestive that a single event is responsible for deposition of iron in the cracks and reduction of opaque oxides.

A gaseous mixture of CO and carbonyle

iron compounds (Fe(CO),.) was proposed to have initiated these reactions.

Upon

cooling, many of those complex gaseous compounds become unstable and break down at different temperatures to Fe°+ CO.

Upon breakdown, metallic iron would fill

many of the open cracks, whereas carbon monoxide released would account for the reduction processes.

The breakdown and the reduction processes may have con-

tinued during cooling down to 200°C.

It is also plausible that these gases may

have been released from the same magma chamber from which the basalts originated and permeated those rocks after solidification and formation of tension cracks. The reduction process is probably not the result of a release of solar wind hydrogen during an impact process since no evidence of reheating or shock features in the plagioclase or ilmenite were found.

All these observations do indeed

support the reduction mechanism proposed by Sato et at. (1973) and emphasize the possibility of endogenic gaseous activity during eruption of lunar lavas.

OPAQUE OXIDE MINERALS in METEORITES Ahmed El

Goresy

Chapter 6 INTRODUCTION Records of stones falling from the sky can be traced back to classical Chinese and ancient Greek or Latin literature.

The stone of Ensisheim in

Alsace, France, is the oldest preserved meteorite fall.

A stony meteorite

weighing 127 kg fell on November 16, 1492 in Ensisheim and the event was recorded by chroniclers of the town in a detailed illustrated description.

How-

ever, it was only after the meteorite shower of L'Aigle, France which fell on April 26, 1803 that the majority of the scientific community finally accepted the extraterrestrial origin of meteorites, due to the convincing demonstration by J. B. Biot to the members of the Academie Française that the L'Aigle stones fell from the sky.

Ever since that time the scientific community all over the

world has continuously and carefully recorded meteorite falls.

The increasing

interest in the study of meteorites, especially in the last 100 years, is mainly due to the fact that these objects document the wide variety of solar system processes, e.g.,

(1) processes in the solar nebula

prior to formation of

planets; (2) processes in planet-like bodies, analogous to the earth; and (3) those resulting from collisional events between interplanetary objects creating shock and fragmentation.

Little is known about the exact source of meteorites,

although it is widely accepted that they probably come from the asteroid belt. The wide variation in the compositions of the primary objects from which meteorites were derived is well demonstrated by the variations in meteorite compositions.

The most commonly used classification of meteorites among

petrologists is the scheme of Mason (1962) which is based on that of Prior (1920).

This classification is shown in Table EG-5.

Chondrites and achondrites

could be grouped together as stony meteorites since silicate and oxide minerals comprise the major part of these meteorites.

The distinction between the two

categories of stony meteorites is straightforward:

"chondriti.c" meteorites

contain spherical silicate or oxide objects called chondrules whereas these spherical objects are absent in achondrites.

However, a few stones considered

as chondrites actually contain no chondrules but are so classed because they are chemically and mineralogically similar to the chondrule-bearing stones of the same type (Mason, 1962).

The chondrites are the most abundant of all

A metal phase occurs in the majority of meteorites; it consists of

two nickel-iron alloys:

(a) Alpha iron or kamacite is an iron-nickel alloy with

constant composition of about 5.5% Ni; it crystallizes in a body-centered cubic lattice.

(b) Gamma iron, or taenite is a nickel-iron alloy of variable compo-

sition ranging from about 27 to about 65% Ni; it crystallizes in a face-centered cubic lattice.

Most iron meteorites are mixtures of both kamacite and taenite.

The classification of iron meteorites into hexahedrites, octahedrites, and Nirich ataxites is mainly based on the configuration of kamacite and taenite in a polished etched surface.

Hexahedrites consist of large crystals of kamacite

with cleavage parallel to the faces of a cube.

In octahedrites the orientation

of kamacite and taenite bands are parallel to octahedral planes.

EG-48

This structure

is also known as "Widmanstatten pattern" after its discoveror, Baron Alois von Widmanstatten.

The texture of the pattern is in direct but inverse re-

lationship with the Ni content of the meteorite. the finer the octahedral structure.

The higher the Ni content

As the nickel content of octahedrites in-

creases, the bands of kamacite become narrower.

At 12-14% Ni, they become ex-

tremely narrow and discontinuous, and the Widmanstatten pattern disappears. Meteorites of this type are classified as nickel-rich ataxites. In stony meteorites, chondrites and achondrites, opaque oxides occur as accessory minerals usually evenly dispersed in the silicate groundmass.

In

chondrites the abundance, assemblages, and textures of opaque oxide minerals in chondrules {e.g. , in many ordinary chondrites) or in Ca, Al-rich inclusions (e.g. , carbonaceous chondrites) can vary drastically from those in the groudmass of the same meteorite.

In iron meteorites, opaque oxides are extremely

rare compared to the mass of meteorites in which they are encountered.

The

opaque oxides occur intergrown with silicates in silicate-rich inclusions or with troilite (stoichiometric FeS) and graphite which also occurs as macroscopic inclusions in the NiFe alloy groundmass. Members of the spinel group (chromite, spinel, and to a lesser extent magnetite) are the most abundant opaque oxides in meteorites. rutile constitute only a small fraction of the oxides.

Ilmenite and

Members of the pseudo-

brookite series have never been encountered in meteorites.

Enstatite chon-

drites and enstatite achondrites appear to be barren of opaque oxides. MINERALOGY Spinel group minerals Chromite is by far the most abundant end member of the spinel series in meteorites.

Chromite occurs in various quantities in more than 90% of all

stony meteorites (chondrites and achondrites) and is the most abundant oxide accessory in mesosiderites, palasites, and iron meteorites (El Goresy, 1965). However, it is rare or almost absent in carbonaceous chondrites.

Instead, the

groundmass of carbonaceous chondrites is especially enriched in magnetite (Jedwab, 1971; Ramdohr, 1973).

In a few calcium-rich achondrites (Nakhlites)

titanomagnetite is the dominant spinel (Bunch and Reid, 1975; Boctor et at., 1976).

Spinel (MgA^O^) occurs as a minor component especially in a few

chondrules in ordinary chondrites (Ramdohr, 1973); however, the mineral is a major constituent of Ca and Al-rich inclusions in some carbonaceous chondrites (Sztrokay, 1960; Christophe Michel-L6vy, 1969; Marvin et at., 1970).

EG-49

Many of

these Ca- and Al-rich inclusions enriched in melilite, spinel, pyroxene, and perovskite are widely accepted as high-temperature condensates from the primordial solar nebula (Grossman, 1975). Based on textures and assemblages, Ramdohr (1967,1973) recognized the following various types of chromites in ordinary chondrites:

(1) coarse chromite;

(2) clusters of chromite aggregates; (3) pseudomorphous chromite; (4) exsolution chromite; (5) chromite chondrules, and (6) myrmekitic (or symplectitic) chromite. The number of these groups would increase markedly, if subtle morphological details were taken into account. 1.

Coarse chromite:

This chromite type occurs in the overwhelming majority

of ordinary chondrites, achondrites, stony irons, and iron meteorites.

It is

present as coarse euhedral to subhedral grains interlocked in the silicate matrix.

Coarse chromite exhibits idiomorphlc features only if in contact with

troilite or metallic iron (Ramdohr, 1973). usually anhedral.

Its boundaries to silicates are

According to Ramdohr (1973), coarse chromite is later than

olivine and pyroxene in the crystallization sequence.

Planimetric integration

of 73 chondrites (Keil, 1962) indicates that the chromite content of chondrites varies between 0.01 and 0.61 wt %.

No apparent relationship was found between

the chromite content and the chondrite type (L = low iron, or H = high iron groups).

Exsolution lamellae of ilmenite along (111) planes of coarse chromite

is a rare feature in chondrites, but not rare in chromites in mesosiderites or pallasites (Fig. EG-31).

Yoder and Kullerud (1971) thus propose that an explanation for the assemblage chromite + albite (+ minor clinopyroxene) could be that kosmochlor is a stable product or metastable quench product that reacts with anorthite as well as bronzite and possibly olivine to form albitic plagioclase, chromite, and a clinopyroxene. 4.

Exsolution chromite:

This type is encountered in clinopyroxene-rich

chondrules as fine-grained clusters of chromite at the boundaries between clinopyroxene and plagioclase.

Ramdohr (1973) proposes exsolution from a chromium-

rich silicate to account for this assemblage. 5.

Chromite chondrules:

Though uncommon in chondrites, the chromite type

is spectacular with regard to its possible origin and the chemical variation of chondrules.

This type of chondrule was first discovered by Ramdohr (1967).

The chondrules consist usually of a two-phase assemblage: clase.

chromite and plagio-

The chromite:plagioclase ratio can vary drastically, and in some cases

almost pure chromite chondrules are encountered, e.g. , Loot and Burdette meteorites (Ramdohr, 1967).

The chromite occurs in concentric alternating layers

of different grain size, compactness, and plagioclase content.

The outermost

shell of the chondrule is usually surrounded by a thin feldspar layer of fairly

EG-5 2

uniform thickness, overgrown bv FeNi alloy and troilite.

Some chondrules exhibit

an atoll-like feature with a plagioclase core and a uniform chromite shell, e.g. , Harrisonville chondrite.

A very common type of chromite chondrule is charac-

terized by the presence of large idiomorphic chromite crystals in a plagioclase groundmass which, in turn, is loaded with numerous small anhedral chromite grains dispersed throughout the plagioclase (Fig. EG-34).

The chondrule is

sealed by an almost continuous shell of chromite, which in turn is separated from the meteorite groundmass by a continuous layer of plagioclase (Fig. EG-34).

the major constituents, clinopyroxene occurs in minor amounts.

A major part

of the chromite occurs as skeletal crystals, indicative of quenching due to rapid cooling.

These chondrules also contain pseudomorphous chormlte, indica-

The pre-

dominance of chromite and plagioclase in these chondrules document the unusual composition of the liquid from which the chondrules were derived.

The assemblage consists of major olivine

So far, neither plagioclase nor pyroxene has been Texture and assemblage are indicative of eutectic

intergrowth of olivine and chromite. Magnetite is by far the major opaque oxide in the groundmass of numerous carbonaceous chondrites.

Usually, it occurs as reaction rims around metallic

FeNi alloy or troilite (Ramdohr, 1973).

However, the main mass is present as

spherules of various sizes dispersed in the groundmass (Fig. EG-37).

A detailed

study with the scanning electron microscope (Jedwab, 1971) indicates that these magnetite spherules are in fact composed of stacking platelets or spirals suggestive of condensation from the vapor phase.

This interpretation would indi-

cate that these magnetites are one of the latest components to condense directly from the cooling solar nebula. Titanomagnetites occasionally occur in Ca-rich achondrites (Bunch and Reid, 1975; Boctor et al. , 1976); they usually exhibit ilmenite lamellae parallel to (111) of the magnetite and very fine lamellae of ulvospinel parallel to (10Q) of the magnetite host.

These features document the close similarity between

nakhlites and many terrestrial igneous rocks (Boctor et al. , 1976). EG-54

Hmenite-geikielite-pyrophanite series Members of this series were reported from ordinary chondrites, stony irons, and iron meteorites (Ramdohr, 1963,1973; Snetsinger and Keil, 1969; El Goresy, 1965; Bunch and Keil, 1971).

They seem to be absent in carbonaceous chondrites

and are very rare in achondrites.

In nakhlites, ilmenite g s usually occurs as

lamellae along with ulvospinel in titanomagnetite (Boctor et at., 1976).

Only

in very few iron meteorites is it also present as exsolution lamellae in coarse chromite.

In contrast to terrestrial igneous and metamorphic rocks, meteoritic

ilmenite never displays titanohematite lamellae.

Rutile lamellae are very rare

but reported to be frequent in some mesosiderites, e.g., Vacu Muerta (Ramdohr, 1973).

Many of the ilmenites reported from meteorites were found to exhibit

twin lamellae presumably formed by shock due to meteorite collisions in space (Fig. EG-38) (Ramdohr, 1973).

The amount of the components geikielite (MgTiO^) and pyrophanite (MnTiO^) in ilmenite is usually higher in chondritic ilmenites than in nonchondritic (achondritic, stony irons) ilmenites (Snetsinger and Keil, 1969; Bunch and Keil, 1971).

The FeO content of ilmenite in ordinary chondrites tends to

EG-56

increase with increasing FeO/(FeO+-MgO) in coexisting olivine, but MgO tends to decrease (Snetsinger and Keil, 1969).

Rutile Rutile is quite rare in ordinary chondrites and achondrites and seems to be absent in carbonaceous chondrites.

However, it is a frequent accessory

mineral in the majority of mesosiderites (Ramdohr, 1965; Marvin and Klein, 1964) and many pallasites.

The mineral is also not rare in silicate inclusions in

iron meteorites (El Goresy, 1965,1971).

Busek and Keil (1966) report that among

chondrites, rutile is most abundant in the Farmington chondrite.

In chondrites

and stony irons the mineral has a colorless to pale blueish appearance in reflected light with frequent internal reflections.

Both in the Farmington

chondrite and Vaca Muerta mesosiderite it occurs as lamellae in ilmenite (Ramdohr, 1965; Busek and Keil, 1966).

However, in several mesosiderites rutile

lamellae in chromite were also reported (Ramdohr, 1965; Busek and Keil, 1966). Ramdohr (1964) suggested that rutile occurring in the assemblage rutile-ilmenitea F # w a s probably formed due to the subsolidus reaction 2FeTi03 •+• 2Ti02 + 2Fe° + 0 2 El Goresy (1965,1971) reports that rutile present in iron meteorites has anomalous optical properties with a greenish color in reflected light.

These rutiles

are characterized by a relatively high Cr^O^ (1.23%) and NbO^ (2.93%) contents. OXIDE ASSEMBLAGES IN VARIOUS METEORITE GROUPS Chondrites The classification of chondritic meteorites in the four subclasses given in Table EG-5 is based mainly on the mineralogical composition of the meteorites. The abundance of Fe, Mg, Si, and 0 altogether in chondrites is very high and may total 90% in the majority of chondrites (Wasson, 1974).

As mentioned before,

in contrast to terrestrial rocks the majority of meteorites contain metallic FeNi alloy.

Prior (1916) noted that "the less the amount of Ni-Fe in chondritic

stones, the richer it is in Ni, and the richer in Fe are the magnesium silicates." These two relationships are known as Prior's rules. of view, Prior's rules are expressions of the

From the petrological point

conditions under which mete-

orites were formed, since the prevailing oxygen fugacity at a given temperature will control the partitioning of iron between the coexisting silicates and the metal phase.

In reduced chondrites, e.g., enstatite chondrites, most of the

EG-5 7

iron is present in the metal phase, and the Ni content of the metal is correspondingly low.

With increasing degree of oxidation more of the iron is oxi-

dized; the iron content of the silicates increases, and since the amount of metal decreases while the amount of N i remains constant, the Ni content of the metal increases.

Prior's rules should be considered as qualitative and hold only for

ordinary chondrites (but not for enstatite or carbonaceous chondrites) because the fractionation in the Fe/Si ratio discovered by Urey and Craig (1953) demonstrated that the ordinary chondrites could not be understood in terms of such a simple model.

Urey and Craig (1953) demonstrated the existence of two groups

of chondrites, one having a low total iron content (22.33 wt 7.), the other a high content (28.58wt %) which they designated the L group respectively.

Determination of the fayalite content of olivine in some 800

group (olivine-bronzite chondrites); (2) low iron (L)-group

(olivine-hypersthene

chondrites); (3) low iron-low metal (LL)-group (olivine-hypersthene

chondrites).

This classification, however, does not account for the

a simplified classification using two parameters: (degree of equilibration). eter classification.

Bunch et al. (1967) carried out a detailed electron microprobe

survey of chromite chemistry in ordinary chondrites as a function of chemistry and texture (equilibration) of the chondrites.

Their study, however, is re-

stricted to the coarse chromite, and hence the variability in chemistry of the other chromite types described by Ramdohr (1967,1973) is not known.

The com-

positional variability of chromites in equilibrated chondrites (subgroups 5 and 6) was found to be within the precision of the method except for Al and Ti. The largest compositional variabilities were observed in chromite in unequilibrated chondrites (subgroups 3).

Zoning in chromites in unequilibrated chon-

drites is also a frequent feature (Bunch et al. , 1967).

These results indeed

support the classification introduced by Van Schmus and Wood (1967).

correlation exists between chromite composition and the classification of

However, FeO in chromite decreases slightly from subgroups

5 to 6, whereas TiC^ continues increasing (Bunch et al. , 1967).

The classifica-

tion of Van Schmus and Wood (1967) implies that their petrographic subgroups within a major chondritic group {e.g., H3 through H6) represent metamorphic series, i.e., mineral compositions in H6 chondrites were established by metamorphism of H3-type assemblages after chondrite formation.

Keil and Fredriksson (1964), Ramdohr

(1967), and many others indicate, however, that chemical and mineralogical equilibration may well be attained during a primary process {e.g., by slow cooling). However, Bunch et at. (1967) indicate that relations between chromite compositions and subgroup classification are consistent with either a metamorphic or a primary origin of chondrites. Spinels found in Ca-, Al-rich inclusions in carbonaceous chondrites coexist with a Ti-rich fassaite, gehlenite, anorthite and perovskite (sometimes with hibonite, Ca. ((Al,Ti)„,0,o) 2 24 Jo

(Marvin et at., 1970; Keil and Fuchs, 1971).

Two

types of coarse-grained Ca-, Al-rich inclusions with spinel as a major constituent were reported from the Allende meteorite (Grossman, 1975) .

Type A con-

tains 80-85 percent melilite, 15-20 percent spinel and 1-2 percent perovskite. Clinopyroxene, if present, is usually restricted to thin rims around inclusions or surrounding cavities in the interior (Grossman, 1975).

Type B contains 35-60

percent clinopyroxene, 15-30 percent spinel, 5-20 percent plagioclase, and 5-20 percent melilite.

The main differences between the two types of inclusions are

abundance and composition of clinopyroxene. -4 phases condensing at 10 sequence:

Thermodynamic calculations for

atmospheres in the solar nebula indicate the following

corundum, hibonite, perovskite, gehlenite, spinel, Fe-metal, diopside,

forsterite, Ti^O^., anorthite, enstatite, rutile, albite, and nepheline (Grossman, 1972). The spinel-bearing Ca-, Al-rich inclusions are considered to be early condensates from the solar nebula.

Spinels occurring in these inclusions in Allende

are almost pure MgAl^O^ but contain traces of FeO, C ^ O ^ , TiO^, and CaO (Marvin et at. , 1970; Grossman, 1975; El Goresy, unpublished). CaO, and TiO^ contents are well below 1 percent.

composition was found between spinels enclosed in melilite and those enclosed in pyroxene.

Figure EG-44 displays the Cr^O^ content versus TiO^ content of

Snetsinger and Keil (1969) indicate that the average composition

of ilmenite from equilibrated ordinary chondrites is, like chromite, related to chondrite classification:

FeO increases and MgO and MnO decrease from H to L

to LL groups (Table EG-7).

Although the statistics are poor due to the rarity of ilmenite, com-

positional trends similar to those observed in chromites can be recognized.

The

correlation indicates that the four phases olivine, orthopyroxene, chromite, and ilmenite did indeed equilibrate in these chondrites. Achondrites Chromite is the most abundant opaque oxide in achondritic meteorites, followed by ilmenite and then rutile (Ramdohr, 1973).

Chromite compositions in

diogenites, chassignites, and several eucrites have been published by Ramdohr and El Goresy (1969), Bunch and Keil (1971), and Lovering (1975).

Spinel com-

positions in Angra dos Reis (angrite) were recently reported by Keil et al. (1976).

Chromian titanomagnetites from nakhlites were also reported by Bunch

and Reid (1975), and Boctor et al. (1976).

A detailed study of mineral assem-

blages in different clasts in the Kapoeta Howardite was recently published by Dymek et al. (1976).

Bunch and Keil (1971) report compositional variability

(particularly for Ti and Al) of chromites from achondrites (without specifying the meteorite group), although Lovering (1975) indicates a complete chemical homogeneity of all chromites he analyzed in the Moama eucrite.

EG-64

Bunch and Keil

(1971) indicate some distinctions between chromites in diogenites and chromites in eucrites:

Chromites in diogenites are higher in Al^O^ and MgO, whereas

chromites in eucrites are higher in TiO^, FeO, and V^O^.

Spinel in Angra dos

Reis is a magnesian, chromian hercynite (Keil et at., 1976).

The howardite

Kapoeta was found to contain various basaltic clasts which could be grouped into two broad lithologic types on the basis of modal mineralogy—(a) basaltic (pyroxene- and plagioclase-bearing) and (b) pyroxenitic (pyroxene-bearing) (Dymek et at. , 1976).

Type b clasts are unusually enriched in opaque oxides

(chromite and ilmenite).

Spinel compositions in various types of achondrites

(other than nakhlites) are given in Table EG-8. recognized in Table EG-8:

Two important features can-be

(1) Chromites in achondrites do not show any corre-

lation due to the strong variability of mineralogy and history of the various subclasses; and et at. (1976)

(2) comprehensive studies similar to those presented by Dymek of additional achondrites

are needed for better understanding

of phase petrology. The nakhlites are characterized, compared to other meteorites, by the presence of titanomagnetite with ilmenite and ulvBspinel exsolution lamellae (Bunch and Reid, 1975; Boctor et at., 1976).

Ilmenite in the Lafayette mete-

orite was found to have broken down to rutile + hematite.

Boctor et al. conclude that the phases they reported

from the Lafayette meteorite represent the late stages of differentiation of the original toagmas and that the parent body from which Lafayette was derived may have undergone major primary differentiation of a nature similar to that believed operative in the early crystallization history of the lunar crust. Ilmenite.

Zoning and minor grain-to-grain compositional variability of

ilmenite in several achondrites was reported by Bunch and Keil (1971).

Achon-

dritic ilmenite is usually depleted in MgO and MnO compared to ilmenite in ordinary chondrites.

Stony irons Chromites in pallasites tend to occur as coarse to very coarse grains (e.g. , up to a few centimeters in the Brenham pallasite) either coexisting with olivine or completely embedded in the iron mass.

They are usually characterized

by their low TiO,, content (0.18% average) but variable Cr 2 0 3 (60.5 to 69.0%) and A1 2 0 3 (1.5 to 9.1%) contents (Bunch and Keil, 1971).

Compositional variability

of chromites in mesosiderites is more pronounced than in pallasites. EG-65

content of chromites in mesosiderites is relatively higher than that of chromites in pallasites (Bunch and Keil, 1971).

Table EG-9 shows a comparison between chro-

mite compositions in pallasites, mesosiderites and lodranites.

Compared to chro-

mites in other stony irons, chromites present in lodranites are unique due to their high ZnO content (0.78-1.68%).

In this respect, they are analogous to

chromites in iron meteorites. Compositions of ilmenites in mesosiderites are generally similar to ilmenite compositions in achondrites.

However, ilmenites in mesosiderites tend to be

higher in MgO, MnO, and Cr^O^ than ilmenites in achondrites (Bunch and Keil, 1971). Iron meteorites Chromites in iron meteorites occur both in the metal groundmass and together with silicates in troilite and graphite inclusions (El Goresy, 1965).

In many

troilite inclusions it coexists with the thiospinel daubreelite, FeCr^S^ (El Goresy, 1965).

This documents the chalcophile and lithophile behavior of chro-

mium in the same meteorite.

In the metal groundmass chromites always form per-

fect euhedral crystals with sharp crystal faces to the iron.

In troilite inclu-

sions with silicates, chromite exhibits idiomorphic boundaries only against

This feature may indicate

equilibration between chromite and coexisting rhombic pyroxene and olivine in the early history of the meteorite.

Bunch et at. (1970) classified silicate

inclusions in iron meteorites into several groups:

(1) Odessa type; (2) Copiapo

type; (3) Weekero Station type; and three other "miscellaneous" types: Kendall County, and Netschaevo.

Enon,

The classification introduced by Bunch et at.

(1970) is based on mineralogical composition, mineral abundance, texture, and shape of inclusion.

Due to the problem of small sample populations, such

classifications are difficult and somewhat ambiguous.

Chromite is common in

Odessa and Toluca (El Goresy, 1965; Bunch et at. , 1970) but was not found in several members of the Copiapo-type inclusions.

Chemistry of chromites in

the majority of iron meteorites is unique compared to chondritic, achondritic, pallasitic, and mesosideritic (except for Lodran) chromites.

Usually, they

contain appreciable amounts of MnO (up to 4.2%) and ZnO (up to 2.31%).

This

again puts some constraints on the geochemical behavior of both Mn and Zn in iron meteorites.

In the same inclusions these chromites coexist with alabandite,

MnS, and sphalerite, ZnS (El Goresy, 1965).

This establishes both the chalco-

phile and lithophile behavior of these two elements in iron meteorites.

Com-

positions of chromites from various iron meteorites are given in Table EG-10.

Rutile in iron meteorites occurs as separate grains in silicate-rich troilite inclusions or with chromite in silicate-free nodules (El Goresy, 1965). Rutile in iron meteorites is unique compared to rutiles in chondrites (Busek and Keil, 1966), since El Goresy (1971) found that rutile in iron meteorites is usually enriched in Cr.O, and NbO.

These mantles result by the reaction of early formed chromite with an Fe-Ti rich

liquid and contrast with those chromites which are included in either olivine or pyroxene where the silicate-enclosed crystals commonly exhibit very thin reaction mantles or no mantles at all, as illustrated in Figure Hg-26b.

For kimberlites, the basaltic trend of

early Cr, Mg, Al and later Fe + Ti is also observed (Fig. Hg-26g-h); but the paragenetically later mantling phase can also become the cores for nucleation and growth of picroilmenite as shown in Figure Hg-26i.

In rare instances for groundmass spinels, but commonly 3+ in garnet kelyphitic rims, the cores show a preferred enrichment of Mg, Al, and Fe , with 2+ intermediate zones which are enriched in Cr and Fe , and with outermost zones which are Ti enriched.

These complex distributions are illustrated in Figure Hg-26j for a ground-

The plane of exsolution

is parallel to the {0001} rhombohedral direction, and exsolution takes place in accord with decomposition as a consequence of slow cooling and solvi-intersection.

The growth and

distribution of large and finer lamellae results in a synneusis texture, i.e., with finer lenses of the solute (exsolving phase) distributed between thicker lenses in the solvent (host-dissolving medium).

Under conditions of extreme and prolonged cooling, diffusion

of the solute migrates towards crystal boundaries and atoll textures result.

Equally

common, although not within the resolution of these photomicrographs, are second and in some cases tertiary exsolution bodies within the primary lamellae; these relationships suggest a process of exsolution which yields successive sets of compositional pairs of Ilm ss and of H e m ^ which conform respectively to conjugate sets of lamellae whose compositions are controlled by the slopes and the limiting boundaries defined by the immiscible solvus region.

Textural interpretations of the series are considered by Edwards (1965)

and by Ramdohr (1969), and the magnetic self-reversal properties of the series are discuss' by Carmichael (1961,1962).

Solvus relationships were established by Carmichael (1961) on

natural material, and the revised experimental solvus by Lindsley (1973) is discussed in Chapter 2.

A detailed treatment of exsolution mechanisms in the series has been pub-

lished by Kretchsmar and McNutt (1971) in which they suggest that exsolution of compositioi with >Ilm Hem

ss

is continuous, whereas with initial compositions which are more enriched in

, exsolution proceeds discontinuously.

This interpretation is consistent with the

textures illustrated in Figure Hg-28 inasmuch as there is a greater preponderance of discontinuous or second generation lenses in grains where hematite solid solution members fori the host and Ilm members the exsolved solute: for the reverse relationship of Ilm hosti r ss ss the exsolved Hem g s solute is a relatively evenly-distributed single generation constituent (compare for example, Figs. Hg-28g and Hg-28h with Figs. Hg-28b and Hg-28f). Other examples of previously assumed exsolution are shown in Figure Hg-29, and in these crystals the exsolving solutes are spinels from picroilmenite and of rutile from titanohematite. acid suites.

However, for

d the Hem g s the solvent and the solute have differing crystal symmetries

and neither the host nor the exsolved phase form members of either a continuous or a discontinuous solid solution series.

The exsolved constituents of the kimberlitic

picroilmenites are titanian-chromites (Fig. Hg-29a-b), and Mg-Al-titanomagnetites (Fig. Hg-29b-d); these phases are oriented along {0001} rhombohedral planes which is consistent with the parallel planes of exsolution exhibited in Ilm-Hem ss (i.e., exsolution sensu striato). In the case of Hem (Fig. Hg-29e-h), two of the crystals shown contain Ilm ss ss lenses in addition to rutile. The grain in Figure Hg-29e has a single thick lamella and many finer lamellae which are clearly earlier than the exsolution of Ilm

problem of whether true exsolution or an exsolution-like process is responsible for this fabric is compounded by the fact that rutile and H m s s

are

at

times present in approximate

equal concentrations; this bears a much closer relationship to the expected modal concentrations which are likely to develop if decomposition of a Pt>sg member, in the system Fe2TiOj-FeTi20^-MgTi20g, is invoked as the precursor to such bimodal assemblages, and sine such compositions have been recognized {i.e., compositions approaching those of lunar armalcolites (FeMg)Ti2C>5 (Haggerty, 1975), the likelihood of decomposition rather than exsolution is favored.

For the cases of minor Il» ss in rutile the probability of unmixing

from a system with limited solid-solubility may still be possible from an initially high temperature and homogeneous one-phase mineral.

The mechanisms remain unresolved.

Reactions involvinq ilmenite-hematite "

In contrast to the uncertainties aired above, the effects of magmatic and metasomatic reactions and the resulting assemblages which form from early and late stage deuteric oxidation and reduction are reasonably well defined.

Examples of the assemblages and the

textures derived from each of these modifying processes are illustrated in Figures Hg-30 and Hg-31. The first process to be considered is magmatic metasomatism which falls into at least the following three distinct categories characterized by the major newly developing Tienriched constituent:

(1) the formation of sphene (CaTiSiO,.) ; (2) the formation of perov-

skite (CaTiOj); and (3) the formation of aenigmatite (Na2FejTiSigC>2Q).

Each of these

reactions

Sphenitization

is illustrated in sets of photomicrographs in Figure Hg-30.

is relatively common in regional low-grade metaraorphic terrains, but in many underformed or tectonically undisturbed deep-seated intrusives and in recent hypabyssal suites, the development of sphene as a reaction product of H m s g °r of titanomagnetite (discussed later) is pervasive, suggesting that it constitutes a product of autometasomatism by reaction of residual liquids with early formed Fe-Ti oxides.

The formation of primary

and secondary perovskite is restricted to undersaturated suites, and the most spectacular examples are in melilite basalts, kimberlites, and in carbonati^tes.

For the latter two

suites, Ilross are enriched in MgTiO^ and decomposition results also in the formation of Mg- and Ti-rich spinels some of which are magnesian-titanomagnetites in composition while others show variable enrichment in Cr^O^, Al^O^ and FeO.

In the cases of sphene and

perovskite reactions, the additive metasomatic ions are Ca + Si, and Ca, respectively. For perovskite reactions Fe from the ilmenite is accounted for in the formation of a spinel, and in low abundance levels of Fe in CaTiO^.

However, for sphene reactions the

excess Fe is restricted to the very limited formation of H e m ^ ; Fe is most commonly absent in analyses of CaTiSiO^, and the formation of associated late-stage amphiboles and phyllosilicates are usually regarded as the potential mineral sinks that develop Hg-119

In many cases, however, the Fe-exchange process is not evident in the metasomatized halos adjacent to individual crystals, so that the Fe is either redistributed among other Febearing minerals, which may be possible at elevated temperatures, or alternatively removed from the system in aqueous solutions if the reactions take place at correspondingly lower temperatures. Aenigmatite reactions differ from those of sphene and perovskite insofar as the problem of Fe reconstitution is accounted for, and in the sense that the metasomitizing ions are Na and Si rather than Ca + Si or Ca.

Aenigmatite replacement of ilmenite and

of the ilmenite constituents of oxidized titanomagnetites are observed in pegmatoid zones in thick differentiated basalts, and these zones in common with the primary crystallizatio of aenigmatite are typical of peralkaline host rock compositions.

Examples of aenigmatite

replacement are illustrated in Figure Hg-30g-h and in the case of the titanomagnetite grain (Fig. Hg-30h), it is clear that aenigmatite replacement post-dates the oxidation exsolution of H m s s from the titanomagnetite.

This is consistent with experimental data

for aenigmatite which show that synthetic compositions have a maximum stability below 900°C (Lindsley, 1971), and with the textural evidence that aenigmatite is a late-stage interstitial liquid reaction product. Reduction "exsolution" and the oxidation of ll®

are

illustrated in Figure Hg-31.

Buddington st at. (1963) and Buddington and Lindsley (1964) have discussed the formation of Mt

from Ilm-Hem by subsolidus reduction. These authors have noted the occurrences ss ss of subsolidus reduction of Ilmgs in hornblende granite gneisses from the Adirondacks and in paragneisses of the Franklin, New Jersey area.

Magnetite^ develop as lenses or

lamellae along planes parallel to the basal planes of the ilmenite; the texture has been simulated experimentally (Buddington and Lindsley, 1964), and the only known widespread occurrences in igneous rocks are in trachybasalts from Teneriffe (Haggerty et at. , 1966) and in andesites from Peru (Haggerty and Wilson, unpublished).

Examples of the

latter are illustrated in Figure 31a-b, and in the three ilmenite grains shown, the reduction exsolution lamellae of Mt gg are partially oxidized to titanomaghemite.

An explanatioi

for the trachybasalts cannot be given, but the widespread occurrence of these intergrowths in the Peru andesites suggests that this assemblage may have resulted during deuteric cooling; an alternative mechanism could also be invoked which would relate reduction to sulfide hydrothermal activity. Apart from these examples of subsolidus reduction, spinel^ are also present in kimberlitic picroilmenites as discussed above with reference to Figure Hg-29a-d, and a second example from the deeply weathered pipes of west Africa are shown in Figure Hg-31c-d.

These

examples are for ilmenite xenocrysts and contrast with the groundmass ilmenites discussed previously.

Surface weathering is highly selective in replacing the M t ^ , with a tendency

to leave the more resistant Mg-rich ilmenites virtually untouched.

The overall similarity

between these kimberlitic ilmenites and those in andesites would tend to favor a subsolidu; reduction mechanism, and the reducing agent is perhaps more clearly defined in the former and is related to COiCO^ equilibria.

However, the possibility still exists that the

formation of Mt g s is not related to subsolidus reduction but to a process of low-temperatui chemical weathering.

It is relevant to note:

(1) that oxidation exsolution lamellae of

Ilm in Mt , that coexist with Ilm having reduction lamellae of Mt , are moderately ss ss ss ss ' common in the Peru andesite suite but extremely rare in kimberlites; and (2) that there are no visibly apparent reduction modifications to coexisting spinel^. Hg-122

For Ilm

ss

in other igneous rocks the progressive sequences of oxidation are less well es-

tablished, and in rock types other than those of the extrusive basic suite, the prevalent decomposition assemblage is Hem s g + TiO^.

Examples in which the TiO^ polymorph is rutile

(based on x-ray data) are illustrated in Figure Hg-31e-g for three grains from a gabbroic anorthosite; additional examples in which the TiC^ polymorph is anatase (based on x-ray data) are illustrated in Figure Hg-31h-j for a progressive sequence of oxidation in a kimberlitic ilmenite megacryst.

Adjacent to the ilmenite the assemblage is finely tex-

tured, and is anatase + Hem g g (h); in an intermediate zone the H e m ^ is progressively removed and coarse crystals of anatase result (i); at the outermost grain boundary the Hem is largely removed and a coarse cavernous network of anatase is the end product, ss This example is most typical of kimberlitic I l m ^ and is most likely the result of lowtemperature magmatic fluidal interaction and later supergene dissolution. Ulvdspinel-magnetite The consolute point for the solvus of the series Fe^TiO^-FejO^ is at approximately 600°C and compositions along this join are sensitive to T°C and fj^ conditions in magmas which co-crystallize members of the Fe202_FeTi0^ solid solution series as discussed in Chapter 2.

The relatively low temperature of the critical point yields compositions which

may be quenched from above 600°C in most extrusives and in some high-level hypabyssal suites; hence, compositions which span the entire series are theoretically possible although the extremely low f()2 values required for the formation of stoichiometric Fe^TiO^ dictates that it is relatively rare as a discrete mineral.

Under conditions of slow

cooling, however, for members within the low temperature immiscible region, unmixing or phase exsolution into Usp gg -rich and Mt gg -rich solid solution members form when the solvus is intersected.

This results in exsolution and the plane of exsolution nucleation

These

examples, and from the reports by many other investigators, e.g. , Anderson (1966), Morse and Stoiber (preprint), there is a clearly defined relationship between exsolution of members along the join and deep-seated basic intrusives of the gabbroic and anorthositic suites.

Hypabyssal occurrences have been described by Vaasjoki and Heikkinen (1962) and

by Jensen (1966) but in general even dykes appear to quench in members with intermediate compositions and exsolution is inhibited. The examples illustrated in Figure Hg-32 are from the Kiglapait intrusion, Labrador, and from the Cumberland stock, Rhode Island.

Although the series is known to be complete at high temperatures and

that coexistence is dependent on ff^ (see Fig. Hg-39), these assemblages are present in highly reduced rocks (serpentinites) which probably formed at T < 500°C.

The contrast in

optical properties of these sphenes is related to the degree of crystallinity; sphene after Ilm is coarsely crystalline (c/. Fig. Hg-30a-b), whereas sphene after Mt is extremely fine grained.

illustrated in Figures Hg-34g-h arid in these there are distinctive optical properties for each of sphene replacing Mt

and of sphene replacing Ilm . For Ilm replacement the ss ss ss sphene is coarsely polycrystalline and compact, in contrast to sphene replacing host titanomagnetite which is microcrystalline and porous; the former yields a well-defined

x-ray powder pattern whereas the latter yields a diffuse pattern.

The compositions, as

determined by electron microprobe for both types, show that FeO is rarely present in concentrations which exceed 0.5 wt. % and that the two types are similar in every other respect.

The example shown in Figure Hg-34e is from an altered basalt from Jamaica, and

the remaining examples are from the mafic body of the Kalgoolie Gold Mine, Australia. Similar examples are typically present in both deformed and undeformed metasomatized mafic complexes, and it is considered by some authors {e.g. , Desborough, 1963; Davidson 2+ 3+ and Wyllie, 1968) that the extensive removal and remobilization of Fe + Fe may result in the formation of large iron-ore deposits of the Cornwall type.

The temporal relation-

ships of sphenitization are difficult to determine but in some cases the process may result from autometasomatism with late stage fluids, or from autometasomatism associated with synkinematic intrusions.

Other examples of sphenitization can be more clearly re-

lated to post-supergene oxidation or to post low-temperature deuteric oxidation.

For

these associations, sphene paramorphs the curvilinear planes of pre-existing maghemite as shown in Figure Hg-35a-b.

This form of replacement, which appears as the murky gray

to dark gray phase in Figure Hg-35b has not been fully characterized, and diverse opinions range from R + H e m ^ , to sphene, and to amorphous Fe-Ti oxide.

More recent studies by

electron microprobe and coupled x-ray analyses show that sphene is present in many instances, but in an equal number of cases neither the detection of Ca nor the characteristic peaks for rutile or for sphene have been found in Debye-Scherrer powder patterns. In all cases, however, both Fe and Ti are typically present, but data yield low analytical totals and a complex submicroscopic assemblage is hence inferred. Maghemitization (^620^) and martitization

(aFe^O^) have been discussed rather

extensively in the literature (e.g., Basta, 1959; Akimoto and Kushiro, 1960; Katsura and Kushiro, 1961; Ramdohr, 1969).

Examples of each of these oxidation products of Mt ss Maghemite is a cationic

deficient spinel, is hence cubic and optically isotropic, and is commonly either white or bluish-white in reflected light oil immersion.

Oxidation planes are typically ill

defined,and the characteristic fabric as illustrated in Figure Hg-35c is along curved, conchoidal directions which are usually accompanied by fine hairline cracks; these cracks are considered to develop as a result of the reduction in volume from M t ^ to maghemite^ and are perhaps also the consequence of octahedral cationic deficiencies in yFe20j.

With

increasing distance from these cracks there are gradational color changes from white immediately adjacent to the cracks, to tan at contacts with unoxidized titanomagnetite. These variations represent a continuous sequence of oxidation solid solution from titanomaghemite to titanomagnetite, and members of the series are therefore somewhat akin to the omission solid solution series of kenotetrahedral and keno-octahedral magnetites described by Kullerud et at. (1969).

This topic is treated by Lindsley in Chapter 1.

A second

example of yFe20j is shown in Figure Hg-35d in association with the high-temperature oxidation "exsolution" of I l m ^ lamellae along {111} spinel planes.

In this example

wide variations in the intensity of maghemitization, which are similar to those shown

Hg-134

magnetite crystal into subunits of smaller areas results in a patch-quilt appearance with each subarea showing a higher or lower degree of oxidation intensity; the white areas are at the most advanced stage, and the tan areas (gray in the photomicrograph), or areas of intermediate color, are at low intensity levels, or are at intermediate levels in the transition from titanomagnetite to titanomaghemite.

Oxidation to maghemite is typically

associated with more titaniferous Mt g g components, whereas aFe20j (hematite) is more typical of magnetitegs (i.e., Ti-deficient) compositions.

The inversion of yFe^Oj to

aFe^Oj takes place between 250° and 550°C and is dependent on grain size and a number of other factors as discussed in Chapter 1. An additional distinction, apart from the characteristic association of -yFe^O^ and titanomagnetite, is that hematite oxidation of Mt g g takes place preferentially along {111} spinel planes (Fig. Hg-35e), and this fabric bears a close resemblance to the orientation and form of H m s s which develop by oxidation exsolution (see, e.g., Fig. Hg-34a) at elevated temperatures from Uspgg-rich starting compositions.

As oxidation becomes more

intense, the {111} primary fabric is disrupted (Fig. Hg-35f) and pseudomorphs of hematite after magnetite result.

The end product is colloquially referred to as martite and the

oxidation process as martitization.

Note that in contradistinction to the high-temperatur

oxidation of titanomagnetite, no additional phases such as Pb gg or R form (see Chapter 4). The optical distinctions between hematite and maghemite are a higher reflectivity constant for hematite, marked pleochroism and optical anisotropy; maghemite is optically isotropic or very, very weakly anisotropic and has a reflectivity value which is close to that of titanomagnetite but substantially less than that of hematite. Oxyhydration is the final process to be considered, and in ideal cases the hydrated products of magnetite or of hematite is goethite, aFeO.OH (Fig. Hg-35g); oxyhydration of maghemite (yFe^Oj) results in lepidocrocite (yFeO.OH); and akaganeite (BFeO.OH) which is relatively rare appears to be more closely associated with FeCl decomposition in meteorite rather than with oxide hydration.

Hydration oxidation of titanomagnetite or of titano-

hematite is uncommon in basic igneous rocks and appears to be most commonly associated with the less titaniferous varieties in more silica-rich suites, and as a byproduct of sulfide decomposition. The processes of maghemitization and oxyhydration are low-temperature events.

These

may result from the final stages of alteration associated with deuteric cooling, but the more likely associations are in supergene weathering and in burial metamorphism.

Hematite

derived from low titanium magnetites, however, can be either a high-temperature product or alternatively it may form under conditions which are similar to those of maghemite formation. Oxides derived from silicates The replacement of ilmenite by aegnigmatite and by sphene is reviewed in Figure Hg-30 and in Figures Hg-30 and Hg-34, respectively.

The reverse relationships of silicates

yielding oxides by exsolution, partial decomposition through processes of magmatic interaction, or of oxidation are illustrated in Figure Hg-36. Exsolution of Mt g g and in some instances H m s s Is relatively common in plagioclase and in pyroxene from plutonic suites.

Particularly striking examples are in larvikites

and in labradorite-bearing anorthosites where oxide exsolution is in part responsible for the blue irridescent Schiller effect.

The planes of exsolution are typically parallel to Hg-135

Magnetite and Titanomagnetite Reactions

(a-b)

The gray and white areas are sphene but have also been described as amorphous

Fe-Ti oxide, and this is so particularly for grain (b).

A comparison of the

curvilinear control on the distribution of these secondary products with textures typical of maghemite replacement (c) suggests that sphene postdates the formation of yFe202- Ilm is absent in grain (a) but is present in (b). of Mt

ss hemite. (c)

Small residual area;

This is the most typical development of titanomaghemite (white) after titanomagnetite, i.e., along curved conchoidal fractures which are inferred to result from changes in structural volume induced by the inversion of an inverse spinel to a cationic deficient spinel.

(d)

0.15 mm.

Variable compositions and a spectra of intermediate phase inversions are apparent in this partially oxidized titanomagnetite grain.

The lamellae are I l m ^ and the

variations in color among segments which are bounded by these lamellae are representative of stages in the transition from titanomagnetite to titanomaghemite. Note that the volume-change cracks are not necessarily associated with the most intensely maghemitized areas, and that the crystal interior is more highly oxidize than the grain boundaries. (e-f)

0.15 mm.

Hematite is the white phase in both grains, and oxidation of these Ti-free crys-

tals along {111} spinel planes is in stark contrast to the lack of crystallographi control so typical of maghemitization (b & c).

These distinctive textural habits

and the anisotropy of Hem (maghemite is cubic and hence isotropic) are the optical distinguishing properties for identification. (g-h)

The dark gray regions in these photomicrographs are goethite; in (g) it develops

as a botryoidal (or reniform = kidney shaped) overgrowth on Mt but some areas of the Mt also exhibit partial oxyhydration; in (h) hematite is an associated phase, and this assemblage is typical of vesicle infillings in volcanic suites.

plate-like in form as illustrated in Figure Hg-36a.

These finely textured oxides are an

important constituent in magnetic studies, and several investigators (e.g., Hargraves and Young, 1969; Evans and McElhinny, 1969) have demonstrated that the major stable component of remanence resides in these microscopic arrays rather than in the larger discrete crystals.

More aluminous oxides in the form of green or brown spinels are also relatively

common in pyroxenes (Fig. Hg-36b) but appear to be rare in plagioclase (Whitney and McLelland, 1973) in cases other than those which involve the reaction of olivine + plagioclase = aluminous pyroxene + spinel.

These latter reactions are typically the result of

metamorphism although convincing arguments have been made, for example by Griffin (1971) and by Griffin and Heier (1973), which suggest that a pressure increase during cooling is a probable mechanism to trigger the reaction at subsolidus temperatures.

The products of

the reaction result in a symplectic intergrowth and the assemblage, which may also be accompanied by garnet, develops as a corona around olivine or at the grain junctions between plagioclase and olivine. Figures Hg-36c and Hg-36d illustrate the partial decomposition of biotite and of amphibole to magnetite; these magnetites are typically very close to stoichiometric Fe^O^, but minor element concentrations of 1-2 wt. % (MgO + A ^ O ^ + TiO^) may also be present. Hydration of these oxides is also very common and this leads to the formation of goethite. The most widespread form of silicate decomposition is the oxidation of olivine, which at high temperatures results in magnetite + hematite or in hematite + magnesioferrite (Fig. Hg-36e-f).

At lower temperatures the typical breakdown product is iddingsite which

has a major constituent of goethite intimately associated with smectite (Fig. Hg-36g-h). Iddingsite formation may develop during the volatile saturated stages of deuteric cooling but is more clearly demonstrated to result as a consequence of supergene weathering processes.

The distinction between high and low temperatures for these olivine byproducts

is also reflected in the oxidation assemblages of the discrete oxides which show that the magnetite-hematite-magnesioferrite suite is accompanied by rutile + hematite, or by pseudobrookite + hematite, whereas iddingsite develops more typically in parallel with the oxidation inversion of titanomagnetite to titanomaghemite (Baker and Haggerty, 1967; Haggerty and Baker, 1967).

For all of the above cases, the earlier comments related to

magnetic stability and remanence apply here also. PRIMARY OXIDE DISTRIBUTIONS Introduction Paragenetic sequences, compositions and model abundances of primary opaque oxides in igneous rocks depend for the most part on the initial bulk chemistry of the host rock, on the depth of emplacement, and on the prevailing oxygen fugacity of the crystallizing magma. As a general principle because FeO, TiO^ and Cr^O^ contents increase with decreasing SiO^, basic rocks tend to contain larger concentrations of oxides than either intermediate suites or acid end members.

To a first approximation this distribution is controlled

largely by the increases in FeO contents which result with increasingly more mafic compositions.

Titanium variations, on the other hand, in the range from acid to basic suites,

determine both the distribution and composition of mineral solid solutions within the system Fe0-Fe90,-Ti0„.

Members of each of the solid solution series Fe0Ti0.-Fe,0. Hg-140

in the ratio of FeiT:FeJ . Therefore, oxide distributions and compositions depend on initial titanium abundances and on ÍQ^• These coupled parameters lead to Mt-richss and hematite-rich Ilm

in acid and intermediate rocks, and to Usp-rich and Ilm-rich in ss ss ss basic and ultrabasic suites. Because both Fe :Fe and Fe:Ti ratios are dependent on temperature and f()2> f°r which coequilibrated oxide pairs yield unique solutions, the initial temperatures of crystallization and the cooling paths followed within the subsolidus are the limiting factors chiefly responsible for compositional variations between titanomagnetites and ilmenites.

This distribution implies, therefore, that suites of

initially lower temperature origins, e.g., acid extrusives, result in Mt-rich solid solutions + Ilm^, but by the same token suites which reequilibrate over long periods of time result in products of closely comparable compositions.

Members of the Ti-enriched FPb-Pb ss series are restricted to more basic rock types and are more abundant as secondary oxidation products, of Usp-Mtss and Ilm-Hem^, than as primary precipitates.

The TiC^ polymorphs

(rutile, anatase, brookite) are also commonly of secondary origin but minor primary concentrations are occasionally present in granites, syenites and diorites.

Chromium abun-

dances vary from low to very low in acid and intermediate rocks, increase with more mafic character, and peak in the ultrabasic.

Chrome-bearing members of Mt-Usp^ are restricted

almost exclusively to the basalt suite, whereas more complex solid solutions of A ^ O ^ and MgO in chromite (FeCr^O^) are common and abundant in picrites, peridotites, dunites and in kimberlites. The major controls on the distribution of oxides as a function of depth dependence are the effects of crystal settling processes and the likely but controversial differences that may exist in

levels among rocks of equivalent chemistry which have evolved as

batholiths, minor intrusions, extrusives, or explosive tephra.

Crystal fractionation

of oxides is widespread in basic intrusives, less common in rocks of intermediate composition, and rare in acid intrusives.

This generalized distribution also applies to suites

intruded at hypabyssal levels and for volcanic equivalents, with rare exceptions, is absent in all but exceptionally thick basic lava flows.

In the absence of crystal set-

tling, the oxides remain a minor component regardless of the mode of emplacement but assume radically different textural and paragenetic relationships with the silicates. These textures may vary from equigranular in intrusives, to inequigranular in dikes and sills, and to interstitial in extrusives.

With respect to the effects of oxidation

control on oxide distribution with depth, the problem is one of open and closed systems and on the retention capacities of the host rock to volatile loss during magmatic emplacement.

Volatile retention at depth in the closed system model will lead to higher 3+ oxidation and greater proportions of Fe , and with the higher probability of an approach to equilibrium for the partitioning of iron species and of titanium between oxides and silicates.

In a generalized sense the extrusive situation is one of rapid volatile loss

and of partial disequilibrium among oxides and silicates.

In hypabyssal regions, con-

ditions may vary between these two extremes although it is probably closer to that of the plutonic environment. The final and perhaps the most fundamental parameter in controlling the distribution, abundance and compositions of opaque oxides in igneous rocks is the level of initial oxygen fugacity and the fg^ path which is followed with cooling.

At magmatic temperatures

ÍQ2 is a major controlling factor in elemental partitioning among the oxides, and in elemental partitioning between the oxides and silicates. Hg-141

T-f„ data for the rhyolites form part of a detailed study of °2

pumice (see appropriate Table), and Lipman's demonstration that T°C correlates with SiOj (higher silica with lower T°C) in the pumices is borne out also by two suites of rhyolites; in addition,these rhyolites have similarly high MnO contents in the ilmenites (3-4.5

wt%

MnO) to those in the pumices but

T = 700-780°C is relatively low; the correlation patterns are similar and H^O is not regarded as being a significant factor in the differing modes of eruption.

A third suite of rhyolites (810-860°C) are considered to have had

a low magmatic water content and these plot off the T-SÌO2 trend.

Post-

caldera lavas have Fe-Ti phenocrysts with very large compositional variations and these are considered to have formed by extensive magma mixing as a result of caldera collapse.

730° (rhyolltes) and 130°C (qtz latites) correspond closely to those obtained for coequilibrated oxide pairs; a significant observation is that 1o Mt g s become consistently richer in 0 ° as the unit becomes more mafic, a trend which is not exhibited by coexisting feldspars; the latter is considered to have reequilibrated in the subsolidus as a result of the introduction of meteoric water to the crystallizing magma in the interval between rhyolite eruption and qtz latite eruption.

anorthosite complex in which he also reports T = 620 C and fu an oxide-rich gabbro.

for

In the sequence from anorthosite (early), to gabbroic

anorthosite, to Fe-Ti oxide rich gabbro, to syenite (latest): poverished

= 10

M t g s become im-

in V^Oj/Fe^O^ by a factor of 0.5; and H m s s become enriched in

MnO/FeO by a factor of 4.3. These changes are associated with a progressive decrease in Hem contents which are: Hem., (anorthosite) to Hem, (syenites ss 34 6 and gabbros). f„ . at 880°C = 2000 bars for the gabbro. (23) EMPA. The 2 ranges in T and f are for initial and final conditions of crystallization. For the interval of T = 700-985°C the estimate of f„ = 310 bars. (24) The H2U value of T and f„ represents one of several values obtained from a study of °2 the association of Mt g g + apatite (see Tables on Magmatic Ore Deposits). (25)

Textural discussion of the distribution of exsolved Usp g s and of the

oxidation to Ilm exsolved Usp

. (26) Magnetite is present in two forms: (a) with ss + Ilm ; and (b) Ti-poor Mt free of exsolution. Sphene is ss ss ss

a selective replacement product and the authors consider that Fe-mobilization may lead to Cornwall type magnetite deposits.

(27)

Hornblende-biotite-qtz

diorite contains a reversely magnetized H e m ^ with exsolved I l m ^ ; and a normally magnetized Mt.

The Hem-Ilm ss association is in the range I l m ^ ^ ; self-

reversal although non-reproducible in the laboratory is considered to involve a negative charge interaction between a Ti-ordered constituent and a Ti-disordered constituent (i.e. within the Ilm-Hem exsolution array).

(28)

Syenites are

within an alkaline complex (2111 my) and because these rocks have high blocking temperatures (500-650°C) the directions of magnetization are those at the time of emplacement.

(29)

The oxide assemblage is similar to that reported by

Merrill and Gromme (1969) - note 27.

The two rhombohedral constituents are

Ilm^Q and I l m ^ respectively in exsolution association; intrusion T = 800°C.
