PostPosted: Apr 06, 2021 14:38    Post subject: Melanophlogite?  

Gostaria de informações sobre a Melanoflogita! Tenho umas amostras que parecem ser opala, cristobalita, Melanoflogita, calcedônia, cordierita! Isto, porque são rochas(bombas vulcânicas)! Quando cálculo o peso específico, tenho um resultado de 2,61, 2,57, 2,65! Porém, quando diminuo as amostras o peso específico vai caindo até 2,2! A dureza é em torno de 7 a 7,5. Juntamente com estes agregados, tenho vidro vulcânico de gravidade específica de 2,66!

Eu já havia pesquisado no mindad! Porém não consegui boa elucidação! Acredito que a dificuldade está no tamanho dos cristais que são pequenos para fazer cálculo de gravidade específica!

Sounds like you need a lab to test your samples.

Boa tarde! Eu tentei usar o google tradutor, porém a tradução não foi fidedigna ao meu texto original! Espero a compreensão de todos! Mas além de me indicarem um laboratório, alguém mais pode dar sua opinião?

From the photograph, I would have to guess quartz, maybe including broken fragments of a fine-grained quartz like jasper. Of the options you list, none is reasonable except chalcedony, both because they look different and most are quite rare. Chalcedony is fine-grained quartz, but that term usually suggests a different appearance than your rock.

DeepL translation:

A partir da fotografia, teria de adivinhar o quartzo, talvez incluindo fragmentos quebrados de um quartzo de grão fino como o jaspe. Das opções listadas, nenhuma é razoável, excepto a calcedónia, ambas porque parecem diferentes e a maioria são bastante raras. A calcedónia é quartzo de grão fino, mas esse termo sugere normalmente uma aparência diferente da sua rocha.

My hypothesis is that it’s a beta cristobalite who’s been metamorphosed into Melanoflogite!


A minha hipótese é que seja uma cristobalita beta que sofreu metamorfose para Melanoflogita!

Tenho outras amostras! Mas o que me chama muito a atenção, é quando após lapidar no disco de corte as pedras ficam escuras no polimento! Li que a Melanoflogita fica preta quando aquecida! E essa cristã escura atrapalha o brilho e a bela aparência da gema! Mas aprendi a deixar a superfície quase limpa durante 3 anos de estudo!

Good afternoon! After analyzing with the microscope the rocks I presented, I was able to highlight the orthorhombic crystals! Therefore, the photographs presented in this discussion refer to cordierite! This was the first diagnosis I ever made! But a geologist here from Brazil gave me a quartz report with inclusions! He did not see the crystals and despised the polychroism of the stones! I wonder if cordierite can be in rare cases uniaxial positive, such as quartz?

Bom dia! Depois de incansável insistência em Cordierita, vejo que tenho grupo Osumilite! E aqui vai uma amostra de um grande cristal de Chaiesite! Ele está bem alterado, mas conserva a forma de cristalização! A Melanoflogita Também está presente na maioria destas espécies!

What you have there is concentric layers of iron oxide, nothing related to melanophlogite, chayesite, osumilite, nor cordierite. Indeed a curious rock - I'd keep it too if I found it - but nothing with exotic mineralogy.

Olá Alfredo! Obrigado pelo seu comentário! Fico feliz!
Aqui no Brasil, apesar de muita riqueza geológica, há pouco interesse científico nesta área, a não ser em minerais já conhecidos como diamantes, água marinha, turmalinas, esmeralda. Eu já tentei buscar recursos diagnósticos por aqui, mas só me decepcionei!
Eu acredito ter material de muito valor científico e também comercial! Mas não encontro respaldo no Brasil! Acredito ter cristais como Roedderite, Eifelite, Chaiesite, Osumilite e Poldretteite! As minhas rochas tem evidências de serem vulcânicas do cambriano e pré cambriano! São às vezes escurecidas por fora pela presença de Melanofllogita! Tenho também nas rochas, a presença de fósseis como hifas de fungos e reprodução assexuada! Tenho paralelamente a essas rochas, outras rochas de aspecto argioloso que eu considero ser Nacrite (pedra de Thian huan)! Portanto, considero este cenário geológico riquíssimo!
A presença da suposta Roedderite, me leva a levantar uma hipótese da origem da vida no nosso planeta de forma extra-terrestre, pois a Roedderite é originada quando sofre ação do sol!
Concluindo, acredito ter encontrado as "sementes da vida"!
