Rafał Siuda, Ph.D., co-organizer of the "Saami-blood land" geological trip during which siudaite was discovered; here in the vicinity of the polymetallic mine in Przygórze

Name:
In honor of Rafał Siuda (b. 1975), Ph.D., of the Institute of Geochemistry, Mineralogy and Petrology, Faculty of Geology, University of Warsaw, a mineralogist interested in both secondary (oxidation zones) minerals and pegmatites (he co-organized and attended the Young Geologists' Club trip to Kola Peninsula in 2008, during which the mineral was found), mineral collector, engaged in the "Spirifer" geological group, author of many articles in "Otoczak", co-author of the Płóczki agates album.
Related to georgbarsanovite. The first eudialyte-group member with essential Mn in the sites usually occupied by Na, K, and/or H3O. Also the most hydrated representative in terms of non-proton-bounded water.

Found during the Kola Peninsula trip of the Young Geologists' Club of the Faculty of Geology, University of Warsaw.

Optical Data of SiudaiteHide

Type:
Uniaxial (-)
RI values:
nω = 1.635(1) nε = 1.626(1)
Max. Birefringence:
δ = 0.009
Based on recorded range of RI values above.

Interference Colours:
The colours simulate birefringence patterns seen in thin section under crossed polars. They do not take into account mineral colouration or opacity.

Michel-Levy Bar The default colours simulate the birefringence range for a 30 µm thin-section thickness. Adjust the slider to simulate a different thickness.

Grain Simulation You can rotate the grain simulation to show how this range might look as you rotated a sample under crossed polars. Each grain retains its interference colour (retardation) while its brightness falls to black at extinction and reaches a maximum between extinction positions.

Surface Relief:
High (positive)
Relative to Canada balsam mounting medium (n ≈ 1.537).

This shows the grain boundary and Becke line effect under plane-polarised light, based on the contrast between this mineral's average refractive index and the mounting medium. It does not take into account mineral colouration.
In focus
Interference Figure:
This shows the idealized uniaxial interference figure - the conoscopic (convergent-light, Bertrand-lens-in) view, for a grain cut with the optic axis centred and vertical. The coloured rings are isochromatics, computed with the same physics as the Michel-Lévy bar above; the dark cross is the isogyre.

For a genuinely uniaxial mineral viewed this way, that cross stays perfectly stationary if you rotate the stage - unlike a biaxial mineral, where it splits apart on rotation. That invariance is itself the standard diagnostic test for telling uniaxial and biaxial minerals apart at the microscope.
Pleochroism:
Non-pleochroic

Locality ListHide

- This locality has map coordinates listed. - This locality has estimated coordinates. ⓘ - Click for references and further information on this occurrence. ? - Indicates mineral may be doubtful at this locality. - Good crystals or important locality for species. - World class for species or very significant. (TL) - Type Locality for a valid mineral species. (FRL) - First Recorded Locality for everything else (eg varieties). Struck out - Mineral was erroneously reported from this locality. Faded * - Never found at this locality but inferred to have existed at some point in the past (e.g. from pseudomorphs).

All localities listed without proper references should be considered as questionable.
