Paulingite Subgroup (original) (raw)

Name:

Named after Linus Carl Pauling (28 February 1901, Portland, Oregon, USA – 19 August 1994, Big Sur, California), professor of chemistry, California Institute of Technology, Pasadena, CA, USA, "in recognition of his outstanding contributions to the understanding of the complex structures of silicate minerals and other compounds." He was one of the most important scientists of all time, published more than 1200 papers and books, and was awarded numerous awards including the 1954 Nobel Prize in Chemistry, 1962 Nobel Peace Prize, and 1967 Roebling Medal.

Paulingite was originally described in 1960. The name was promoted to subgroup in the zeolite redefinitions of 1997.

- This locality has map coordinates listed. - This locality has estimated coordinates. ⓘ - Click for references and further information on this occurrence. ? - Indicates mineral may be doubtful at this locality. - Good crystals or important locality for species. - World class for species or very significant. (TL) - Type Locality for a valid mineral species. (FRL) - First Recorded Locality for everything else (eg varieties). Struck out - Mineral was erroneously reported from this locality. Faded * - Never found at this locality but inferred to have existed at some point in the past (e.g. from pseudomorphs).

All localities listed without proper references should be considered as questionable.
