What is Surite; Its Structure and Properties about?

Surite has been reported to be a mineral that intercalates cerussite-like materials in a smectite interlayer. However, the chemical analysis and infrared absorption spectra indicate that the interlayer material has the composition of Ca 0.5 OH•2PbCO 3 . A one-dimensional Fourier synthesis of electron density for acid-treated surite shows that the 2:1 layer of surite has the structure of a general smectite (the distance between the Si plane and the apical O atom plane is about 1.6 A ̊). Moreover, the one-dimensional Fourier synthesis method showed that the crystal structure of surite is a 2:1 dioctahedral smectite interlayered with basic lead calcium carbonate.
