About Dingdaohengite-(Ce)Hide

04561650017272470968598.jpg
Ding Daoheng
Formula:
(Ce,La)4Fe2+(Ti,Fe2+,Mg,Fe3+)2Ti2(Si2O7)2O8
Colour:
black
Lustre:
Sub-Metallic
Hardness:
6
Specific Gravity:
4.83
Crystal System:
Monoclinic
Name:
Named in honor of Ding Daoheng (丁道衡) (November 1899, Zhijin County, Guise Province, China - 21 February 1955, China), who discovered the Bayan Obo REE-Nb-Fe ore deposit in 1927, at the age of 28. The suffix follows the IMA naming convention for REE minerals and denotes cerium as the dominant REE.

Optical Data of Dingdaohengite-(Ce)Hide

Type:

Surface Relief:
Very High (positive)
Relative to Canada balsam mounting medium (n ≈ 1.537).

This shows the grain boundary and Becke line effect under plane-polarised light, based on the contrast between this mineral's average refractive index and the mounting medium. It does not take into account mineral colouration.
In focus
Interference Figure:
This shows the idealized biaxial acute bisectrix (Bxa) interference figure - the conoscopic view for a grain cut perpendicular to the acute bisectrix, using this mineral's 2V. The two small white dots mark the melatopes - the points where the two optic axes emerge - and are shown only when they fall within the field of view. The coloured bands are isochromatics, and the dark bands are isogyres.

Rotate the stage: at 0°/90° the isogyres form a cross through the melatopes; at 45° they pull apart into curved hyperbolas. That splitting on rotation - absent in a uniaxial figure - is the standard diagnostic test for telling biaxial minerals from uniaxial ones. If 2V is large, the melatopes may fall outside the field of view, as they often do at the microscope too.

No measured or calculated 2V is on file for this mineral, so the value used here (90°) is estimated from its recorded refractive indices and optic sign, not from a direct 2V measurement.
Anisotropism:

Dispersion:
dispersion is r > v.
Colour in reflected light:
