Abstract

Brief description of three rare minerals, zavaritskite (BiOF), shafranovskite (K2Na3(Mn,Fe,Na)4[Si9(O,OH)27](OH)2-nH2O,n≈2,33) and betekhtinite (Pb2(Cu,Fe)21S15), are given. Digital models of their crystal forms and structures are simulated with application of the Shape v.7 and Atoms v.5 software packages. Basic structural patterns which may determine physical properties of the studied minerals have been revealed.
