of a Roman numeral, an alphabetic character and an Arabic numeral.
This designation constitutes the classification symbol based on the
system in Mineralogische Tabellen by Hugo Strunz (a summary is
shown in Appendix A). The Roman numeral and alphabetical character
divide the minerals into broad groups based mainly on chemistry,
with the silicate subdivision based on silicate polymerization. The
Arabic numeral specifies the group to which a particular mineral
belongs; a group is defined mainly on the basis of crystallographic
similarities, but minerals with similar chemical compositions are
sometimes included in the group even though they do not exhibit
crystallographic affinities with other members of the class. The
next entry gives the name of the author of the mineral and the date
of its introduction into the literature. In some cases where a
mineral has been redescribed or the name has been changed from the
original, this entry will reflect the person and time when this was
done. This is followed by a reference to what we have tried to make
the latest, or most authoritative, literature report. We have
attempted to include at least one reference for each species. If
there is a second reference following the first, it will be a
reference to the determination of the crystal structure. The
abbreviations used in the references are given in Appendix B. The
final entry, when present, gives the names of similar or related
minerals and is preceded by the deSignation "See also" .
