Resumo

There are relatively few minerals — no more than 6000; and every year this list is expanded by 50–60 new minerals discovered all over the world. Along with this, sometimes, a previously discovered mineral with a personal name is discredited for various reasons and excluded from the Mineral Cadastre with a full ban for the following use of its name for other minerals. This article reports on the recent discovery of a new mineral haitaite, a complex oxide from the crichtonite group, and the discrediting of the mineral eleonorite from the beraunite group.
