  • Short description: The RRUFF project provides empirical analyses of minerals, including cell parameters, chemistry, Raman and IR spectroscopy, as well as photos and a large set of references and open access pdfs.
  • Access to data: search interface https://www.rruff.net/
  • Sample types: Minerals ()
  • Spectra types: Raman spectra over the Mid/Far-IR (mainly 100-1300 cm-1 + low resolution broad scan: 100-4200 cm-1)
  • Search tools: Interface with Keywords: Mineral name and Chemistry (list of included/excluded elements). Also provide a standalone software: CystalSleuth, which allow to seach by best fit of part or all your spectrum, or through the alphabetic list of minerals.
