Jinshajiangite is a rare silicate mineral named after the Jinshajiang river in China.[4][2] Its currently accepted formula is BaNaFe4Ti2(Si2O7)2O2(OH)2F.[5] It gives a name of the jinshajiangite group.[2] The mineral is associated with alkaline rocks. In jinshajiangite, there is a potassium-to-barium, calcium-to-sodium, manganese-to-iron and iron-to-titanium diadochy substitution. Jinshajiangite is the iron-analogue of surkhobite[5] and perraultite.[6] It is chemically related to bafertisite, cámaraite[2] and emmerichite.[7] Its structure is related to that of bafertisite. Jinshajiangite is a titanosilicate with heteropolyhedral HOH layers, where the H-layer is a mixed tetrahedral-octahedral layer, and the O-layer is simply octahedral.[5]
The mineral has only two known places of natural occurrences; a dyke near Jinshajiang River, Sichuan Province and the intrusion of Norra Kärr in Sweden.[8][5]
