| Pay attention though! The CIF files available in this database correspond to published data in scientific publications. They can be minerals of unusual compositions or unusual conditions of pressure and temperature. Sometimes, basic minerals at ambient P and T are not in the database. The reason is simple: these structures are known and no one will publish a paper in American Mineralogist to describe the structure. | Pay attention though!
