description Chirvinskyite, (Na,Ca)<sub>13</sub>(Fe,Mn,□)<sub>2</sub>(Ti,Nb)<sub>2</sub>(Zr,Ti)<sub>3</sub>(Si<sub>2</sub>O<sub>7</sub>)<sub>4</sub>(OH,O,F)<sub>12</sub>, is a new w&#246;hlerite&#8211;related zirconotitano&#8211;sorosilicate. It is triclinic, <i>P</i> <inline-formula> <math display="inline"> <semantics> <mrow> <mover> <mn>1</mn> <mo>&#175;</mo> </mover> </mrow> </semantics> </math> </inline-formula>, <i>a</i> = 7.0477(5), <i>b</i> = 9.8725(5), <i>c</i> = 12.2204(9) &#197;, <i>&#945;</i> = 77.995(5), <i>&#946;</i> = 82.057(6), <i>&#947;</i> = 89.988(5)&#176;, <i>V</i> = 823.35(9) &#197;<sup>3</sup>, <i>Z</i> = 1. The mineral was found in albitized alkaline pegmatites in a foyaite of the Mt. Takhtarvumchorr (Khibiny alkaline massif, Kola Peninsula, Russia, N 67&#176;40&#8242;, E 33&#176;33&#8242;). Chirvinskyite forms sheaf&#8211;like and radiated aggregates (up to 6 mm in diameter) of split fibrous crystals hosted by saccharoidal fluorapatite and albite. The mineral is pale cream in color, with a silky luster and a white streak. The cleavage is not recognized. Mohs hardness is 5. Chirvinskyite is biaxial (&#8211;), <i>&#945;</i> 1.670(2), <i>&#946;</i> 1.690(2), <i>&#947;</i> 1.705(2) (589 nm), 2<i>V</i><sub>calc</sub> = 80.9&#176;. The calculated and measured densities are 3.41 and 3.07(2) g&#183;cm<sup>&#8722;3</sup>, respectively. The empirical formula based on Si = 8 apfu is (Na<sub>9.81</sub>Ca<sub>3.28</sub>K<sub>0.01</sub>)<sub>&#8721;13.10</sub>(Fe<sub>0.72</sub>Mn<sub>0.69</sub>□<sub>0.54</sub>Mg<sub>0.05</sub>)<sub>&#8721;2.00</sub> (Ti<sub>1.81</sub>Nb<sub>0.19</sub>)<sub>&#8721;2.00</sub>(Zr<sub>2.27</sub>Ti<sub>0.63</sub>)<sub>&#8721;2.90</sub>(Si<sub>2</sub>O<sub>7</sub>)<sub>4</sub>{(OH)<sub>5.94</sub>O<sub>3.09</sub>F<sub>2.97</sub>}<sub>&#8721;12.00</sub>. Chirvinskyite belongs to a new structure type of minerals and inorganic compounds and is related to the w&#246;hlerite-group minerals. Its modular &#8220;wallpaper&#8222; structure consists of disilicate groups Si<sub>2</sub>O<sub>7</sub> and three types of &#8220;octahedral walls&#8222;. The mineral is named in honor of Petr Nikolaevich Chirvinsky (1880&#8211;1955), Russian geologist and petrographer, head of the Petrography Department of the Perm&#8217; State University (1943&#8211;1953), for his contributions to mineralogy and petrology, including studies of the Khibiny alkaline massif.
