Belloite is a Halide mineral first discovered in the Rio Tinto Mine in Sierra Gorda, Antofagasta, Chile in 1998.[1] Belloite has the ideal chemical formula of Cu(OH)Cl. The mineral has been approved by the Commission on New Minerals and Mineral Names, IMA, to be named belloite, after Andrés de Jesús María y José Bello López, the founder of the Universidad de Chile. Samples of belloite are preserved in the collection of the Mineralogical Museum in Hamburg, Germany.[2]

Occurrence

Belloite is commonly found alongside nitratine and paratacamite. It is unstable in the presence of water or in humid climates and will convert to botallackite and atacamite through the process of hydrolysis.[1] Belloite is only stable in desert regions. It occurs in crystalline incrustations in its host rock. The most common host rocks for belloite are quartz, feldspar, or tourmaline. Belloite forms in tiny crystals, with an average size of 0.03 millimeters, at its largest reaching up to 0.1 millimeters in size.[1]

Physical properties

Belloite is a yellow-green to olive-green, with a yellowish green streak. It exhibits a hardness between 1 and 2 on the Mohs hardness scale.[2] Belloite occurs as incrustations or aggregates in a host rock. Its crystals are characterized by the {100}, {001}, {052}, {112}, and {121}, faces. The measured density is 3.79 g/cm3.[1]

Optical properties

Belloite is biaxial positive, which means it will refract light along two axes, and is calculated to 1.85. It is translucent to transparent mineral with a vitreous or glassy luster. Belloite has weak pale yellowish green pleochroism.[3]

Chemical properties

Belloite is a halide with space group P21/a. The empirical chemical formula for Belloite is Cul.05(OH)1.00O0.1Cl0.90 or more ideally Cu(OH)Cl.[1] It is very close to the chemical formula of Anthonyite. Belloite is closely related to botallackite and atacamite as it will convert to them in the presence of humidity.[2]

X-ray crystallography

Belloite is in the monoclinic crystal system, with space group P21/a. The X-ray powder pattern was found using the Phillips X'Pert powder diffractometer and Cukα radiation. They were then refined with the least squares from the indexed powder data. Unit cell dimensions of: a = 5.333(3)Å, b = 6.668(2)Å, c = 6.124(2)Å; β= 115.00°; Z=4. The volume of unit cell = 205.47Å3.[1][2]
