Chevkinite-(Ce) and perrierite-(Ce) are the most common members of the chevkinite group of minerals. They are dimorphs, and both have the general formula A4BC2D2Si4O22, where A = REE, Y, Ca, Sr, Th; B = Fe2+, (Mn, Mg); C = Ti, Al, Fe3+, Fe2+, Cr, Mn, Mg, Zr, Hf, Nb; and D = Ti. Both have been report...
