一九七○年夏,作者在研究四川的碱性岩脉型稀有元素矿床时,发现一种金红色的矿物,经鉴定认为是一种新的含钡锰铁钛的硅酸盐矿物,当时暂命名为钡锰铁钛石。近来,经进一步研究证明,它确系一种新的钡锰铁钛硅酸盐矿物。现在根据产地正式命名为金沙江石。 In the summer of 1970, when studying the alkaline dikes of rare-earth elements in Sichuan Province, the authors discovered a gold-red mineral that was identified as a new silicate mineral containing barium, ferromanganese and titanium Temporarily named barium manganese iron titanium. Recently, further studies have shown that it is indeed a new barium ferromangosilicate mineral. Now officially named as the origin of the Jinsha River stone.
