Associated minerals are： diamond, moissanite, wiistite, iridium （＂osmiridium＂）, osmium （＂iridosmine＂）, periclase, chromite, native iron, native nickel, native chromium, forsterite, Cr-rich diopside, intermetallic compounds Ni-Fe-Cr, Ni-Cr, Cr-C, etc. Yarlongite and its associated minerals were handpicked from a large heavy mineral sample of chromitite. The metallic carbides associated with yarlongite are cohenite, tongbaite, khamrabaevite and qusongite （IMA2007-034）. Yarlongite occurs as irregular grains, with a size between 0.02 and 0.06 mm, steel-grey colour, H Mohs： 5^1/2-6. Tenacity： brittle. Cleavage： （0 0 1） perfect. Fracture： conchoidal. Chemical formula： （Cr4Fe4Ni）29C4, or （Cr,Fe,Ni）29C4, Crystal system： Hexagonal, Space Group： P63/mc, a = 18.839（2） A, c = 4.4960 （9） A, V = 745.7（2） A^3, Z = 6, Density （calc.） = 7.19 g/cm3 （with simplified formula）. Yariongite has been approved as a new mineral by the CNMNC （IMA2007-035）. Holotype material is deposited at the Geological Museum of China （No. Ml1650）.展开更多

It occurs in a chromite deposit in the Luobusha ophiolite, Tibet. Based on the determina- tion of its crystal structure, the empirical formula is (Fe4.12Cr3.84Ni0.96)8.92C3.70 and the simplified formula is (Fe4Cr4Ni)4C9. The mineral is hexagonal with a = 1.38392(2) nm, c = 0.44690(9) nm, space group P63 m c, Z=6 and the calculated specific gravity Dx = 7.089 g/cm3. Fe, Cr and Ni occupy different crystallographic sites and their coordination numbers are approximately 12, forming an alternate stacking sequence of flat and puckered layers along the c axis. Some me- tallic atoms have a defect structure. The interatomic distances of Fe, Cr and Ni are 0.2525— 0.2666 nm, and the distances between Fe, Cr, Ni and C are 0.1893—0.2169 nm. The coordina- tion number of carbon is 6. It occurs in interstices of the metallic atoms Fe, Cr and Ni to form trigonal-prismatically coordinated polyhedra. These coordination polyhedra are linked with each other via shared corners or shared edges into a new type of metal carbide structure.展开更多
