Abstract

Analysis of the data on the unit-cell parameters of the chemically characterized minerals of the lamprophyllite group showed that the parameter c and the angle β are independent of the cationic composition in the interlayer position. The value of the parameter b correlates with the Ba content. It is shown that the parameter a linearly depends on the average ionic radius of cations in the interlayer position. The Ba and K contents can be estimated from the equations K + Ba = 2.1431a-41.091 and Ba = 17.764b-125.36.
