摘要
D’ansite is a rare mineral in solt deposits. R. Gorgey described its existence briefly in Hal solt deposit in 1909. But he did not name it nor give its mineralogical data. H. Autenrieth and G. Braune got the crystal of d’ansite by synthesis in 1958 and its physical properties were determined. He named this mineral 'd’ansite'. Its existence in nature was confirmed when the mineral was discovered in a drill core of the Tertiary strata in the Jianghan Plain and was first investigated by Zheng Jinping in 1972. Later Qu Yihua et al. reported the results of their study on d’ansite.
