This mineral is present in two boreholes recently drilled in the Emet borate district (Mio-cene; western Anatolia , Turkey). The evaporitic succession in these boreholes is mainly formed of a glauber ite-probertiteal-ternation. We suggest the name"emetite", after the town of Emet, for the new sulphate mineral, although the fine crystal size hinders the appropriate chemical and crystallographic characterization required to propose it as a new mineral to the International Mineralogical Association. .8 p.application/pdfeng(c) Polish Geological Institute-National Research Institute, 2010MiocèEvaporitesMioceneEvaporitesinfo:eu-repo/semantics/article5861262014-03-25info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
