suessite
Suessite is a rare iron silicide mineral with chemical formula: Fe3Si. The mineral was named after Professor Hans E. Suess. It was discovered in 1982 during the chemical analysis of The North Haig olivine pigeonite achondrite (ureilite). It is a cream white color in reflected light, and ranges in size from 1 μm "blebs" to elongated grains that can reach up to 0.45 cm in length. This mineral belongs in the isometric crystal class. The isometric class has crystallographic axes that are all the same length and each of the three axes perpendicular to the other two. It is isotropic, has a stru

Silicon tetraauride
Aurosilane is an inorganic compound with a chemical formula of SiAu4. In this compound, gold acts as an electron acceptor with a valence of –1. Aurosilane has been isolated as a type of gold silane. Its unit cell parameters are a = 5.658, c = 5.605 A. The LUMO and the four Si-Au bonding orbitals of SiAu4 are similar to those of SiH4.
