Short summary
This is the first successful synthesis of jadarite, a Li–B ore mineral. Synthetic jadarite was characterized by powder X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared, Raman, and Li and B K-edge X-ray absorption near-edge structure. The results are evaluated by first-principles theoretical calculations. Our findings for jadarite in sediments derived from Li-rich alkaline brines under high-temperature diagenetic conditions have implications in the search for new Li–B deposits in sedimentary basins.
