Abstract
Raman spectroscopy has been used to characterise the compound of formula Pb(Fe 3+,Cu2+)3(SO4)2(OH)6 equivalent to synthetic beaverite, one of the jarosite subgroup minerals. The mineral is characterised by multiple OH stretching vibrations attributed to non-equivalent OH units in the structure. Multiple vibrations are observed for the stretching vibrations indicating the non-equivalence of the sulphate units in the structure. This multiplicity is also reflected in the ν2 and ν4 bending modes. The Raman spectrum of beaverite is significantly different from that of plumbojarosite for which multiple bands are not observed.

Citation countsare sourced monthly from Scopus and Web of Science citation databases.
These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science generally from 1980 onwards.
