Minerals by Chemical Compostion

The Chemical Periodic Table in the Mineralogy Database is moving to a new, permanent domain. Please make sure to bookmark the new location at http://webmineral.com/chemical.shtml.

To display the list of minerals by element (formulas courtesy of Athena Mineralogy), select the desired element from the periodic chart.

Remember, the listings for the elements oxygen (O), hydrogen (H), silicon (Si), calcium (Ca), iron (Fe), aluminum (Al), sodium (Na), magnesium (Mg), and sulphur (S) have the largest representation in the mineral kingdom.
