“…Since its first description as a new mineral species, liandratite has only been mentioned by several authors (Lumpkin and Ewing 1996;Lumpkin 2001;Kristiansen 2006;Abd El-Naby 2009;Galliski et al 2009;Matyszczak 2013Matyszczak , 2014, while chemical data seem to have been presented only by Lumpkin and Ewing (1996). The latter authors found liandratite as a weathering product of betafite (□,U 4+ ) 2 Ti 2 O 6 (O,OH,F) and analyses revealed that the chemical composition of liandratite is no less complex than those of the other Nb-Ta-Ti oxides.…”
