Abstract
The unique structure of the new mineral species paulkellerite [Bi (sub 2) Fe (super 3+) (PO (sub 4) )O (sub 2) (OH) (sub 2) , monoclinic, C2/c, Z = 4, a 11.380(3), b 6.660(3), c 9.653(3) Angstrom; beta 115.34(2) degrees) was solved by direct methods, then refined by difference-Fourier synthesis, using 858 observed reflections, to residuals R = 3.4% and R (sub w) = 3.3%. It has a (100) layered structure with sheets of BiO (sub 7) polyhedra interspersed with layers of P tetrahedra and Fe (super 3+) octahedra. The P and Fe (super 3+) polyhedra alternate in corner sharing, single chains that parallel the c axis.
