Abstract OH incorporation in quartz in Al-, B- and Libearing systems (granitic systems containing tourmaline or
spodumene) was studied experimentally in order to investigate the effect of pressure, temperature and chemical
impurities on the generation of OH-defects. High-pressure
experiments were carried out at pressures between 5 and
25kbar and temperatures between 800 and 900C, and
OH-contents in quartz were calculated from IR absorption
spectra measured on oriented quartz crystals. IR absorption features were assigned to impurity substitutions,
such as AlOH (3,420, 3,379 and 3,315cm1) and BOH
(3,595cm1), LiOH (3,483cm1), and hydrogarnet substitution (4H)Si defects (3,583cm1). Results indicate a
negative correlation of incorporated Al-specific OH-defect
content versus pressure (630130wtppm H2O at 5kbar
to 1026wtppm H2O at 25kbar), but no clear correlation of B-specific OH-defects with pressure. In runs initially containing spodumene, virtually OH-free quartzes
were observed at pressures 10kbar, where impurity cations compensate each other forming an anhydrous eucryptite-defect component. In contrast, at 5kbar, both Li- ad
Al-specific OH-defects are observed (corresponding to
47075wtppm H2O). Results from this study may therefore be used to monitor formation conditions of quartz in

terms of pressure and trace metal saturation of the crystallizing petrological system. IR spectra obtained from natural
quartz grains from a tourmaline-bearing pegmatite exhibit
B- and Al-related OH-bands. The B-related OH-band is
also exhibited in quartz from a tourmaline+spodumenebearing pegmatite. Li- and Al-related OH-bands, however,
are subordinate or not observed at all in the spodumenebearing system, which suggests that OH-vibrations do not
reflect absolute Li-contents in quartz due to efficient coupled substitution involving Al. Data from experimental runs
and natural specimens indicate that the B-related OH-band
can be used as a rough proxy for B-contents in quartz, confirming the previously postulated charge balance equation
[H+]=[B3+]+[Al3+][Li+][K+][P5+].

Introduction
Quartz is one of the most important nominally anhydrous
minerals of the Earths crust and occurs in many different
geodynamic environments both as a primary phase in igneous and metamorphic rocks or as important constituent of
sedimentary rocks. It has been known since long that it is
able to incorporate traces of hydrogen as OH-point defects
(Bambauer 1961; Kats 1962). Moreover, the structurally
bound hydrogen commonly acts as a charge compensator
for trace metal ions, such as Al3+, Fe3+ and B3+ (Bambauer 1961; Kats 1962; Aines and Rossman 1984; Mller
and Koch-Mller 2009). Li+, Na+ and P5+commonly
incorporated in combination with Al3+may also charge
balance the incorporation of OH to a small extent. The
occurrence of hydrogen affects thermodynamic properties

Methodology
Experimental techniques
Quartz crystals were grown in two systems: B-bearing:
granite-tourmaline water system (SM1) and Li-bearing:
granite-spodumene water system (SM2). All starting mixtures contained synthetic quartz (AlfaAesar 99.995%
purity), synthetic simplified muscovite-granite powder
(74.66wt% SiO2, 15.55wt% Al2O3, 4.29wt% Na2O,
3.08wt% K2O, 0.42wt% FeO, 0.42wt% CaO, for more
details see Huang and Wyllie 1973) and distilled water. The

Results
Bbearing system
All IR spectra of synthesised quartz crystals in the
granite-tourmaline water system exhibit (1) a band triplet at 3,430, 3,379 and 3,315cm1 (Fig.2), assigned
to AlOH defects and caused by coupled substitutions
Si4+ =Al3+ +H+ (Kats 1962; Bambauer 1963), that is
most strongly evolved at low pressures, and (2) a sharp
absorption band at 3,595cm1, which is interpreted as
a B-related OH-defect (Mller and Koch-Mller 2009);
it does not reveal a clear systematic trend, but tends
to show the highest absorbance at intermediate pressures (15kbar). In runs carried out at the lowest pressure (5kbar), a weak absorption band at 3,475cm1 is
observed, most likely associated with LiOH-interstitials
(Bambauer 1963; Aines and Rossman 1984; see more
below). Another absorption band at 3,583cm1 is very
weak at low pressures and most strongly exhibited in runs
at the highest pressure (25kbar), in accord to Stalder and
Konzett (2012). This band is related to hydrogarnet (4H)Si
substitution, typically for synthetic quartzes (Chakraborty
and Lehmann 1976; Paterson 1986; Rovetta 1989). The
amount of tourmaline in the starting material (runs E2
and E2B, Table1) does not have a significant effect on
13
Libearing system
Quartz crystals formed in the spodumene-bearing system at
10kbar are almost free from OH-related defects (Fig.3).
A very weak absorption band at 3,585cm1 is detectable,
most probably caused by hydrogarnet substitution (4H)Si.
In contrast, quartz crystals equilibrated at 5kbar show a
strong absorption band at 3,483cm1 that can clearly be
assigned to a Li-related OH-defect, in accord to previous studies (Bambauer 1963; Aines and Rossman 1984).

Fig.4IR spectra of natural quartz crystals from a tourmaline-bearing pegmatite (NBP) from Texel Group (tztal Alps, Italy) and a spodumene-bearing pegmatite (NLP) from Koralpe (Austria). All spectra
are shown as E||noE||ne after boron correction. Spectra are normalised to 1mm thickness and offset for clarity
(absorption bands at 3,430, 3,379 and 3,315cm1) consistently occurs with pronounced intensity in the 5kbar run.
Natural quartz frompegmatites
Quartz from two natural rocks was used for comparison
with the experimentally equilibrated quartz crystals:
1. Quartz from a tourmaline-bearing pegmatite from Texel
Group, tztal Alps, Italy (Melcher etal. 2010) exhibits a
very sharp absorption band at 3,597cm1 and at approximately 3,379cm1 (Fig.4), assigned as B-specific and
Al-specific OH-defects, respectively. Individual grains
also show a weak absorption band at 3,585cm1, probably due to hydrogarnet defect (4H)Si generation.
2. Quartz from a tourmaline- and spodumene-bearing pegmatite from Koralpe, Austria (Gd 1989) also exhibits
the B-specific OH-band, but surprisingly OH-bands that
can be assigned to Li- and Al-related OH-defects are
only faintly visible in one individual grain (Fig.4).
