About TopazHide

04428020017271885515181.jpg
St John's Island (Topazios Island)

St John's Island, Red Sea Governorate, Egypt
Formula:
Al2(SiO4)(F,OH)2
Colour:
Colourless, white, pale blue, light green, yellow, yellowish brown, or red
Lustre:
Vitreous
Hardness:
8
Specific Gravity:
3.4 - 3.6
Crystal System:
Orthorhombic
Name:
Named after Topazios Island (currently called Zabargad Island or St. John's Island) in the Red Sea. In antique times, the name was probably used for the gemstone that is now known as peridot.
Occurs in pegmatites and high-temperature quartz veins, also in cavities in granites and rhyolites.

A maximum of ~30 % of the F site is occupied by OH in natural topaz, although in some very rare cases OH-dominant members have been described in high-pressure rocks, see Unnamed (OH-analogue of Topaz) (Zhang et al., 2002). A pure synthetic OH analogue of topaz has been synthesised under conditions of high pressures (between 55 and 100 kbar) and high temperatures (up to 1000 °C) (Wunder et al., 1993).
Note that topaz is either orthorhombic or triclinic, depending on the F:OH ratio.

Based on recorded range of RI values above.

Interference Colours:
The colours simulate birefringence patterns seen in thin section under crossed polars. They do not take into account mineral colouration or opacity.

Michel-Levy Bar The default colours simulate the birefringence range for a 30 µm thin-section thickness. Adjust the slider to simulate a different thickness.

Grain Simulation You can rotate the grain simulation to show how this range might look as you rotated a sample under crossed polars.
