About Samarskite GroupHide

Formula:
A3+B3+C5+2O8
A = Yb, Y, REE (Ln), U, Th, Ca
B = Fe3+, Mn2+
C = Nb, Ta, Ti. Nb> Ta and Ti
Samarskite group minerals are ordered A3+C5+O4 minerals. The difference between the species of the group lies in the occupancy of the A-site.

Important note: Britvin et al. (2019) show, that iron is an essential constituent of samarskite-(Y) - a feature most likely concerning other group members, and thus interpolated from samarskite-(Y) to the general formula of the group.

Yttrotantalite-(Y) is (also) a member of the samarskite group according to Ercit (2005).

Click on any node to view relationships. Formula-derived relationship network for the group members above. Use Find related species to add formula-neighbour species outside the current group view. Solid links show inferred chemical differences; dashed violet links show same-formula crystallographic differences. Hydration states are not treated as relationship changes. These relationships do not imply any real-world substitution reactions between these species.
