Figure 1
(a) A scatter plot and (b) a histogram of observed TT distances in all chain-silicate minerals and selected synthetic compounds. All symmetrically unique TT distances in the geometrical repeat unit of each mineral (or synthetic) were incorporated. Red lines represent the set maximum (3.210 Å) and minimum (2.910 Å) TT distances allowed during embedding. In (a), black points represent Si4+–Si4+ distances and the blue, purple, green, red, pink and yellow points represent TT distances that involve the T cations Al3+, V5+, Be2+, B3+, Fe3+ and Li+, respectively.
