Infrared spectra of mineral species

Over the last 30 years, Dr. Nikita V. Chukanov has collected IR spectra of  about  2000  mineral species,  including  247  holotype samples.  In  this  book, he presents  3309 spectra of these  minerals with   detailed   description   and   analytical  data  for  reference samples.  In  the  course  of this work, about 150 new mineral species have been discovered. After an introductory chapter, infrared spectra of minerals are given together with the descriptions of standard samples used (occurrence, appearance, associated minerals, empirical formula etc.) and some comments. Sections are organized according to different  classes  of  compounds  (silicates,  phosphates, arsenates, oxides etc.).
