Overview

This analysis reveals how blue jadeite forms in Guatemala, identifying key mechanisms and elemental influences.

Key Points

  • Results highlight that blue jadeite consists of two distinct phases, linking its formation to fluid interaction.
  • Spectroscopic analysis shows that coloration is primarily due to Fe3+ electronic transitions and intervalence charge transfer.
  • Raman spectroscopy and CL imaging confirm the jadeite's formation in a fluid-assisted environment during metasomatic alteration.
  • Key diagnostic criteria for identifying blue jadeite have been established, contributing to the knowledge of subduction zone geology.
