Залив Хмары
Khmara Bay (Russian: Залив Хмары) is a small bay in the eastern part of the larger Casey Bay, lying directly south of Zubchatyy Ice Shelf and Sakellari Peninsula, in Enderby Land, Antarctica. It was photographed by the Australian National Antarctic Research Expedition in 1956 and explored by the Soviet Antarctic Expedition in 1957. It was named by Soviet expedition after tractor driver Ivan F. Khmara, who lost his life when his tractor broke through the ice at Mirnyy Station in January 1956. [Wikipedia]

The tablets are flattened parallel to {010} and a few grains show these faces. Individual tablets range from 1 to 7 mm across and from 0.5 to 4 mm thick as seen in thin section. Khmaralite is most closely associated with sillimanite, surinamite, musgravite, garnet, and biotite,.
The textures of the aggregates, particularly the relatively fine grain size (few mm to nearly 3 cm) and preferred orientation, suggest a metamorphic origin. Grew proposed granulite-facies conditions of ≥ 820 °C, ≥ 10 kbar after intrusion. Khmaralite and associated minerals are inferred to have formed by metamorphism of pre-existing pegmatitic Be phases. |
