Abstract

Iron-doped silicate (zircon), prepared by a ceramic method with the addition of LiF as mineralizer, was analyzed by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) and 57Fe Mössbauer spectroscopy to obtain information on the solid solution formation. The results of X-ray diffraction and Mössbauer spectroscopy have shown that only a small fraction of iron, about 1.5 mol%, is incorporated in the zircon structure as paramagnetic Fe3+ species while the remaining Fe3+ cations form magnetic α-Fe2O3 particles which are trapped within the zircon matrix.
