【摘要】 1983年9月我们在柴达木盆地西部昆特依盐湖北缘发现了南极石（CaCl₂·6H₂O）.并从物理性质、光学性质、化学分析、X衍射粉晶分析和热学性质等方面进行了研究,讨论了其形成环境。南极石是干旱地区盐湖中的罕见矿物,在富钙的高矿化度卤水条件下和低温环境中才能稳定存在。该矿物在我国尚属首次发现。更多还原

【Abstract】 Antarcticite（CaCl₂·6H₂O）was found on the north margin of the Kunteyiplaya in the west of the Qaidam Basin in September,1983.The physical andoptical properties,and chemical and X-ray diffraction analyses of antarcticitehave been determined.The natural environment where this mineral was formedhas also been discussed in this paper. Antarcticite is a rare mineral that occurs in salt lakes in arid areas.Itcan stably exist only in highly mineralized and calcium-rich brines in the lowtemperature environment.The mineral has been discovered for the first time inChina.更多还原
