[Rockhounds] ??? inserted by AOL / was lead bearing......

[Erich Kern]

Pete,

I eschewed the email software of my email provider since i was already familiar with Outlook Express which is what I use. No doubt you could ditch AOL's email package and use Outlook or Outlook Express whilst still using AOL as a service provider.

(P.S., a plague again upon the stupid aol email program from which I am reading & writing my replies to the List, which keeps adding those little question marks at times & places for no logical reason that I can ever discern.? There is not supposed to be any question mark by "plumboan" in that message I just posted.? Sorry.)

Don, & all who care,

The IMA paper giving a table of chemical adjective modifiers is a 1987 Can. Min. 
paper by Nickel and Mandarino, linked from the MSA website as
http://www.minsocam.org/ammin/AM72/AM72_1031.pdf

and in it, table 1, p. 1035, gives (I can't get this text to quite copy properly 
out of the pdf file, and the lettering is tiny and?I have to hand-edit the 
superscripts)


Pb2+ ?plumboan; Pb4+ plumbian

so it really sounds like we should properly be calling this "plumboan 
orthoclase", not plumbian.

Pete
