Our investigations on the shocked eucrite Northwest Africa (NWA) 8003 revealed the occurrence of a new mineral, vestaite [I MA 2017 -068; (Ti 4+ Fe 2+ )T   i   3    4  +$\begin{array}{} \displaystyle \rm Ti^{4+}_{3} \end{array}$    O 9 ], This mineral coexists with corundum, ilmenite, and Al-Ti-rich pyroxene in shock melt pockets. It has an empirical chemical formula of (T   i   0.73    4  +    F   e   0.63    2  +$\begin{array}{} \displaystyle \rm Ti^{4+}_{0.73}Fe^{2+}_{0.63} \end{array}$    Al 0.60 Mn 0.03 Mg 0.02 Cr 0.01 )T   i   3    4  +$\begin{array}{} \displaystyle \rm Ti^{4+}_{3} \end{array}$    O 9  and the monoclinic  C 2/ c  structure of schreyerite. The ideal vestaite structure can be considered as a modular structure with an alternate intergrowth of M 3 O 5 -type (M = Ti 4+ ,Fe 2+ ,Al) and Ti 2 O 4 -type slabs. Alternatively, it can also be envisaged as a crystallographic shear structure with periodically shearing of rutile or α-PbO 2  units. Streaking and splitting of diffraction spots observed in selected-area electron diffraction patterns indicate planar defects in the modular structure of vestaite. Our observations reveal that vestaite crystallized at high pressure (≤10 GPa) from a melt that represents a mixture of ilmenite and silicate components. A robust constraint on its formation conditions and stability field cannot yet be provided due to the lack of experimental data for these systems. Vestaite is a new, shock-generated mineral first found in a meteorite of the howardite- eucrite-diogenite (HED) clan, the largest achondrite group. Its discovery is not only of significance to the meteoritic mineralogy, but it could also be of interest to materials science.
