Mineral classes At the highest level, mineral species can be classified primarily on the main anion (O 2−, S 2− etc. ), and anionic complex [(OH)−, (SO 4)2−, (CO 2)2−, (PO 4)3−, (Bx. Oy. Z)−, (Six. Oy. Z)− etc. ) or lack of an anion (native elements) to form classes. That is minerals are classified by chemical composition.
Broadest division of minerals 1. Native elements (with the exception of gases) make up about 2. 20 minerals. These are further divided into metals, semi-metals, and 3. non-metals. Examples of the first are Au, Ag, Cu, Pt, Pd and Fe; of the second are As, Sb, Bi, Se, and Te and of the last: S and C. 2. Sulfides, including sulfarsenides, arsenides and tellurides. Here As replaces S and acts as an anion. 3. Sulfosalts: approximately 100 species. In these minerals, As and Sb play a role more akin to metals than anions. Many important Ag minerals are sulfosalts. 4. Oxides: a) simple and multiple where O combines with one or metals (cations) and b) hydroxides with OH- group and H 2 O molecules. 5. Halides: these minerals have Cl, Br, F, and I as anions. 6. Carbonates: based on the CO 3 radical. 7. Nitrates: (NO 3)-1, only 7 known minerals 8. Borates: (BO 3)-3 can form polymers--about 100 known minerals. 9. Phosphates (PO 4)-3 are usually hydrous as well. 10. Sulfates (SO 4)-2 can be hydrous or anhydrous • Tungstates (WO 4)-2 I mentioned the minerals scheelite and wolframite, 2. which are both ore minerals for W. 12. Silicates (Si. O 4)-4
Dana Classification - principles The recent Dana classification number used in the database presented in the website « Webmineral » is based on Dana's New Mineralogy, Eighth Edition, by Richard V. Gaines, H. Catherine Skinner, Eugene E. Foord, Brian Mason, and Abraham Rosenzweig, with sections by Vandall T. King, Illustrations by Eric Dowty, (ISBN: 047119310 -0) Copyright © 1997, John Wiley & Sons, Inc. The material is used by permission of John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
Dana Classification - Principles "The first entry for each mineral species is a number containing four parts separated by periods. It represents a hierarchical system parallel to that of Linneaus but based on a combination of chemistry and crystal structure of the minerals. These numbers facilitate insertion and addition of a new species into a list emphasizing close chemical and structural affiliations, an advantage since each mineral is known by a different, and not necessarily related, name.

Strunz classification Hugo Strunz introduced a chemical-structural classification of the entire domain of minerals (Mineralogische Tabellen, 1941), followed by A. S. Povarennykh with a modified classification (1966 in Russian, 1972 in English). The chemical-structural classification of H. Strunz has gone through a number of editions, and is currently in the process of being refined in the light of recent crystal-structure determinations (Nickel-Strunz Version 10) by the late Ernest H. Nickel and others.
Strunz classification (http: //www. webmineral. com/strunz. shtml#. UJPQho. XPNpg) The current scheme divides minerals into ten classes, which are further divided into divisions, families and groups according to chemical composition and crystal structure. IMA/CNMNC proposes a new hierarchical scheme (Mills et al. 2009), using the Nickel-Strunz classes (10 ed):

A hierarchical schema for mineral subdivisions Mineral class Mineral subclass Mineral family Mineral supergroup Mineral group(s) Mineral subgroup or mineral series
Mineral subclasses apply to the borate and silicate classes, where the configuration and bonding of tetrahedra are used to group structurally similar minerals. The subclasses are: neso-, soro-, cyclo-, ino-, phyllo-and tectosilicate (silicates). Traditionally the borates are divided into monoborates, diborates, triborates, tetraborates etc. (e. g. Strunz & Nickel, 2001), however, enough structural data is known to base classification of borates on the polymerisation of the borate anion.
Mineral family Mineral families apply to groups and/or supergroups having similar structural and/or chemical features that make them unique. A mineral family can also consist of two or more supergroups. An example of a mineral family established on the basis of structural criteria is the zeolite family, where all members are characterised by their framework structures containing cavities, but individual minerals themselves may also belong to different groups (and supergroups). The feldspathoid family also belongs to this type of ‘structural’ family. Other families are defined on the basis of chemical features, as for example the pyrite–marcasite family (which would consist of the pyrite and marcasite supergroups).
Mineral supergroup A mineral supergroup consists of two or more groups which have essentially the same structure and composed of chemically similar elements. Generally, a supergroup will contain members from the same mineral class (e. g. the epidote supergroup), however in rare cases a supergroup may also contain groups belonging to different classes, as for example in the alunite supergroup. A supergroup may also contain isolated mineral species which do not belong to any mineral group, as for example vanadinite, which is the only vanadate in the apatite supergroup.
Mineral group A mineral group consists of two or more minerals with the same or essentially the same structure, and composed of chemically similar elements.
Mineral subgroup or mineral series A mineral subgroup or mineral series should be used for minerals of a homologous series (e. g. , the lillianite and pavonite series and other sulphosalt series, Moëlo et al. , 2008) or polysomatic series (e. g. , biopyriboles and heterophyllosilicates, Ferraris et al. , 2008), where they do not meet the strict definition of a mineral group.
Mineral group definition Compositional aspects of a mineral group “Chemically similar elements” is taken to mean elements that have similar crystal-chemical behaviour. Thus, isoconfigurational minerals composed of elements with dissimilar crystal-chemical behaviour, such as galena, periclase and halite, are not to be regarded as belonging to the same group. Unoccupied structural sites are to be treated in the same way as chemical elements for the purpose of group placement.
Structural aspects of a mineral group (1) The expression “the same structure” means isotypic structures, i. e. , structures belonging to one structural type. Crystal structures regarded as being ‘essentially the same’ can be encompassed by the term ‘homeotypic’. As defined by the IUCr, “two structures are considered as homeotypic if all essential features of topology are preserved between them” (Lima-de-Faria et al. , 1990). In particular, homeotypic structures do not necessarily have the same space group. Therefore crystallographic variants such as superstructures, substructures and differences in the ordering of atoms that may give rise to multiple cells and/or different space groups, are considered to be homeotypic (e. g. , as in the recently defined labuntsovite (Chukanov et al. , 2002) and eudialyte (Johnsen et al. , 2003) groups). Some polymorphs, such as triclinic and monoclinic feldspars, can be regarded as homeotypic and can therefore be included in a group; others, such as the carbon polymorphs diamond and graphite, are topologically too dissimilar (i. e. , they are not homeotypic) and should not belong to the same group.
Structural aspects of a mineral group (2) Homologous series (e. g. , lillianite and pavonite series), polysomatic series (e. g. , biopyriboles, heterophyllosilicates) and other structural categories that comprise modular structures (Ferraris et al. , 2008) go beyond the strict definition of a homeotype, and therefore are not to be regarded as groups. However, some mineral species in these categories may belong to groups if they meet the necessary criteria. Polytypic variations within mineral species, as defined in Guinier et al. (1984), are not regarded as comprising groups.
