Bertrandite(Be4(OH)2O(SiO3)2) (12161-82-9)

 Bertrandite (CAS NO.12161-82-9) is a beryllium sorosilicate hydroxide mineral. Bertrandite (CAS NO.12161-82-9) is a colorless to pale yellow orthorhombic mineral with a hardness of 6-7. It is commonly found in beryllium rich pegmatites and is in part an alteration of beryl. Bertrandite often occurs as a pseudomorphic replacement of beryl. It, with beryl, are ores of beryllium. It was discovered near Nantes, France in 1883 and named after French mineralogist, Emile Bertrand (1844-1909). Bertrandite (CAS NO.12161-82-9) is high toxic. It will produce toxic beryllium oxide fumes by heat. So the storage environment should be ventilate, low-temperature and dry. Keep Bertrandite (CAS NO.12161-82-9) separate from raw materials of food.
