Na$_{3}$Mn$^{3+}$$_{3}$(PO$_{4}$)$_{2}$(CO$_{3}$)O$_{2}$·5H$_{2}$O,
is a new layered phosphate-carbonate from the Oldoinyo
Lengai volcano in the Gregory Rift (northern Tanzania). The
mineral occurs as spherulites, up to 200 μm in diameter,
consisting of plates up to 10 μm in thickness in
shortite-calcite and calcite carbonatites. Jörgkellerite is
brown with a vitreous lustre and has a perfect micaceous
cleavage on {001}, Mohs hardness is 3. The calculated
density is 2.56 g/cm3. Jörgkellerite is uniaxial (-),
ω = 1.700(2), ε = 1.625(2) (Na light, 589 nm) with
distinct pleochroism: O = dark brown, E = light brown. The
empirical formula of the mineral (average of 10 electron
microprobe analyses) is
(Na$_{2.46}$K$_{0.28}$Ca$_{0.08}$Sr$_{0.04}$Ba$_{0.02}$)$_{Σ2.88}$(Mn$^{3+}_{2.39}$Fe$^{3+}_{0.56}$)$_{Σ2.95}$((PO$_4$)$_{1.95}$(SiO$_4$)$_{0.05}$))$_{Σ2.00}$(CO$_3$)(O$_{1.84}$(OH)$_{0.16}$)$_{Σ2.00}$·5H$_2$O.
The oxidation state of Mn has been determined by XANES.
Jörgkellerite is trigonal, space group P-3,
a = 11.201(2) Å, c = 10.969(2) Å,
V = 1191.9(7) Å$^{3}$ and Z = 3. The five strongest
powder-diffraction lines [d in Å, (I/I$_o$), (hkl)] are:
10.970 (100) (001), 5.597 (15) (002), 4.993 (8) (111), 2.796
(14) (220) and 2.724 (20) (004). The crystal structure is
built up of the layers composed of disordered edge-sharing
[MnO6] octahedra. Each fourth Mn site in octahedral layer is
vacant that results in appearance of ordered system of
hexagonal “holes” occupied by (CO$_3$) groups. The
overall composition of the layer can be expressed as
[Mn$_3$O$_8$(CO$_3$)]. These manganese-carbonate layers are
linked in the third dimension by (PO$_4$) tetrahedra and
Na-polyhedra. The origin of jörgkellerite is related to
low-temperature oxidative alteration of
gregoryite-nyerereite carbonatites.},
