Römerite Visible Spectra (400 - 2400 nm)
The spectrum of light orange-brown roemerite, Fe2+Fe3+2(SO4)4
· 14H2O, is an excellent
example of the spectrum of an Fe2+ - Fe3+ mineral
in which the Fe2+ - Fe3+
ions are sufficiently separated from each other that
intervalence charge transfer is not an important component of the
spectrum. i
