The finding of well-crystallized specimens of bultfonteinite from the N’Chwaning II mine (Kalahari Manganese Field, Republic of South Africa) in the 1980s allowed the collection of new data about the crystal structure of this calcium silicate hydrate. The crystal structure study is in agreement with the general features outlined by McIver (1963) and allows the description of a reasonable hydrogen bond scheme.

Abstract
The finding of well-crystallized specimens of bultfonteinite from the N’Chwaning II mine (Kalahari Manganese Field, Republic of South Africa) in the 1980s allowed the collection of new data about the crystal structure of this calcium silicate hydrate. The crystal structure study is in agreement with the general features outlined by McIver (1963) and allows the description of a reasonable hydrogen bond scheme.File in questo prodotto:
