Notes:
The microstructures of magnetite containing vanadium and titanium, found in Sichuam province, China, have been studied by high-resolution electron microscopy (HREM). The [110] structural images showed a multiply intimate intergrowth of magnetite and coulsonite as a result of exsolution along the [110] direction instead of the [111] direction as reported previously. The detectable different contrast of the two phases was confirmed by image simulation. The antiphase domain and various stacking faults related to the nonstoichiometry of the transitionmetal oxide in the same direction were also observed in magnetite and coulsonite, respectively. The possible genetic aspect and formation of these defects on exsolution are also considered.
