缅甸抹谷粉色石榴石的宝石学和谱学特征

Gemmological and Spectral Characteristics of Pink Garnet from Mogok, Myanmar

  • 摘要: 采用折射仪等常规宝石学仪器、电子探针(EPMA)、激光剥蚀电感耦合等离子体质谱仪(LA-ICP-MS)、激光拉曼光谱仪、傅里叶变换红外光谱仪和紫外-可见光谱仪对2颗产自缅甸抹谷的粉色石榴石样品进行测试。红外光谱及拉曼光谱表明其属于较纯净的钙铝榴石端元。电子探针测试得到其化学成分均接近钙铝榴石端元,平均晶体化学式分别为Ca3.08(Al1.84Ti0.06Fe0.01Mg0.01)1.92(Si2.90Al0.10)3.00O12 和Ca3.06(Al1.84Ti0.08Fe0.01Mg0.01)1.94(Si2.91Al0.09)3.00O12。LA-ICP-MS测试结果表明,2颗粉色石榴石样品均含有Ti、Fe、Zr、Mn、Nb、Ga、Sn等微量元素,相比于颜色相近的墨西哥草莓红钙铝榴石前者Ti含量较高,在5 444~10 035 ppm,而Mn含量较低,仅有47~132 ppm。紫外-可见吸收光谱结果显示,2颗粉色石榴石样品分别在489 nm和495 nm处有吸收带,均有以550 nm为中心的吸收宽带,结合微量元素测试结果及其他学者对石榴石及其他硅酸盐矿物中Mn离子吸收光谱的研究分析,推测样品的粉红色由Mn3+导致。

     

    Abstract: In this paper, 2 pink garnet samples from Mogok, Myanmar were studied by electron microprobe, laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometer(LA-ICP-MS), Raman spectrometer, infrared spectrometer and ultraviolet-visible spectrometer and other conventional gemmological tests. Infrared and Raman spectra results indicated that they are close to the grossular endmember. The chemical composition of the samples was tested by electron microprobe. The result also demonstrated that the 2 samples are close to the endmember of grossular. The average chemical structure formulas of the samples G1 and G2 are Ca3.08(Al1.84Ti0.06Fe0.01Mg0.01)1.92(Si2.90Al0.10)3.00O12and Ca3.06(Al1.84Ti0.08Fe0.01Mg0.01)1.94(Si2.91Al0.09)3.00O12, respectively. The test result of LA-ICP-MS showed that both samples contain trace elements such as Ti, Fe, Zr, Mn, Nb, Ga and Sn. The content of Ti in the samples, ranging from 5 444 to 10 035 ppm, is higher than that in raspberry-red grossular from Mexico, while the content of Mn is lower, only 47 to 132 ppm. Ultraviolet-visible spectra analysis revealed that the samples G1 and G2 have absorption bands at 489 nm and 495 nm, respectively. There is an absorption broad band centered at 550 nm in both samples. Combined with the trace elements in the samples and the previous research about the role of Mn in garnet and other silicates, it is believed that the absorption broad bands are related to Mn3+, which means their colour is probably due to the presence of small amounts of Mn3+.
