Sulfate mineral

Résumé
The sulfate minerals are a class of minerals that include the sulfate ion (SO42−) within their structure. The sulfate minerals occur commonly in primary evaporite depositional environments, as gangue minerals in hydrothermal veins and as secondary minerals in the oxidizing zone of sulfide mineral deposits. The chromate and manganate minerals have a similar structure and are often included with the sulfates in mineral classification systems. Sulfate minerals include: Anhydrous sulfates Barite BaSO4 Celestite SrSO4 Anglesite PbSO4 Anhydrite CaSO4 Hanksite Na22K(SO4)9(CO3)2Cl Hydroxide and hydrous sulfates Gypsum CaSO4·2H2O Chalcanthite CuSO4·5H2O Kieserite MgSO4·H2O Starkeyite MgSO4·4H2O Hexahydrite MgSO4·6H2O Epsomite MgSO4·7H2O Meridianiite MgSO4·11H2O Melanterite FeSO4·7H2O Antlerite Cu3SO4(OH)4 Brochantite Cu4SO4(OH)6 Alunite KAl3(SO4)2(OH)6 Jarosite KFe3(SO4)2(OH)6 IMA-CNMNC proposes a new hierarchical scheme (Mills et al., 2009). This list uses it to modify the Classification of Nickel–Strunz (mindat.org, 10 ed, pending publication). Abbreviations: "" – discredited (IMA/CNMNC status). "?" – questionable/doubtful (IMA/CNMNC status). "REE" – Rare-earth element (Sc, Y, La, Ce, Pr, Nd, Pm, Sm, Eu, Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm, Yb, Lu) "PGE" – Platinum-group element (Ru, Rh, Pd, Os, Ir, Pt) 03.C Aluminofluorides, 06 Borates, 08 Vanadates (04.H V[5,6] Vanadates), 09 Silicates: Neso: insular (from Greek νησος nēsos, island) Soro: grouping (from Greek σωροῦ sōros, heap, mound (especially of corn)) Cyclo: ring Ino: chain (from Greek ις [genitive: ινος inos], fibre) Phyllo: sheet (from Greek φύλλον phyllon, leaf) Tekto: three-dimensional framework Nickel–Strunz code scheme: NN.XY.##x NN: Nickel–Strunz mineral class number X: Nickel–Strunz mineral division letter Y: Nickel–Strunz mineral family letter ##x: Nickel–Strunz mineral/group number, x add-on letter 07.A Sulfates (selenates, etc.) without Additional Anions, without H2O 07.AB With medium-sized cations: 05 Millosevichite, 05 Mikasaite; 10 Chalcocyanite, 10 Zincosite 07.
