Liebermannite, KAlSi3O8, a new shock-metamorphic, high-pressure mineral from the Zagami Martian meteorite
Abstract
In this paper, we discuss the occurrence of liebermannite (IMA 2013–128), KAlSi3O8, a new, shock–generated, high–pressure tetragonal hollandite–type structure silicate mineral, in the Zagami basaltic shergottite meteorite. Liebermannite crystallizes in space group I4/m with Z = 2, cell dimensions of a = 9.15 ± 0.14 (1σ) Å, c = 2.74 ± 0.13 Å, and a cell volume of 229 ± 19 Å3 (for the type material), as revealed by synchrotron diffraction. In Zagami, liebermannite likely formed via solid–state transformation of primary igneous K–feldspar during an impact event that achieved pressures of ~20 GPa or more. In conclusion, the mineral name is in honor of Robert C. Liebermann, a high–pressure mineral physicist at Stony Brook University, New York, USA.
