    Characterization of the sulphate mineral amarantite - using infrared, Raman spectroscopy and thermogravimetry.
    (2013) Frost, Ray Leslie; López, Andrés; Cipriano, Ricardo Augusto Scholz; Xi, Yunfei; Silveira, Aléssio Jordan da; Lima, Rosa Malena Fernandes
    The mineral amarantite Fe3þ 2 (SO4)O _ 7H2O has been studied using a combination of techniques including thermogravimetry, electron probe analyses and vibrational spectroscopy. Thermal analysis shows decomposition steps at 77.63, 192.2, 550 and 641.4 _C. The Raman spectrum of amarantite is dominated by an intense band at 1017 cm_1 assigned to the SO2_ 4 m1 symmetric stretching mode. Raman bands at 1039, 1054, 1098, 1131, 1195 and 1233 cm_1 are attributed to the SO2_ 4 m3 antisymmetric stretching modes. Very intense Raman band is observed at 409 cm_1 with shoulder bands at 399, 451 and 491 cm_1 are assigned to the m2 bending modes. A series of low intensity Raman bands are found at 543, 602, 622 and 650 cm_1 are assigned to the m4 bending modes. A very sharp Raman band at 3529 cm_1 is assigned to the stretching vibration of OH units. A series of Raman bands observed at 3025, 3089, 3227, 3340, 3401 and 3480 cm_1 are assigned to water bands. Vibrational spectroscopy enables aspects of the molecular structure of the mineral amarantite to be ascertained.

    Characterization of the sulphate mineral coquimbite, a secondary iron sulphate from Javier Ortega mine, Lucanas Province, Peru – Using infrared, Raman spectroscopy and thermogravimetry.
    (2014) Frost, Ray Leslie; Gobac, Željka Žigovečki; López, Andrés; Xi, Yunfei; Cipriano, Ricardo Augusto Scholz; Lana, Cristiano de Carvalho; Lima, Rosa Malena Fernandes
    The mineral coquimbite has been analysed using a range of techniques including SEM with EDX, thermal analytical techniques and Raman and infrared spectroscopy. The mineral originated from the Javier Ortega mine, Lucanas Province, Peru. The chemical formula was determined as (Fe1.37^3+; Al0.63)Σ2.00(SO4)3. 9H2O. Thermal analysis showed a total mass loss of ~73.4% on heating to 1000 °C. A mass loss of 30.43% at 641.4 °C is attributed to the loss of SO3. Observed Raman and infrared bands were assigned to the stretching and bending vibrations of sulphate tetrahedra, aluminium oxide/hydroxide octahedra, water molecules and hydroxyl ions. The Raman spectrum shows well resolved bands at 2994, 3176, 3327, 3422 and 3580 cm^-1 attributed to water stretching vibrations. Vibrational spectroscopy combined with thermal analysis provides insight into the structure of coquimbite.
