These borate compounds crystallizes in the structure of the mineral huntite. These materials generally adopt a noncentrosymmetric structure, trigonal space group R32. The general formula of huntite borates is LnM3(BO3)4 where Ln = Lanthanide and M = Al, Sc, Cr, Fe, Ga.

Sample 5 was analysed with XRD diffraction to acquire more detailed information and detect the crystalline phases within the powder. The results confirmed the presence of anatase (TiO2), calcite, and detected the presence of clinozoisite, and huntite among the silicate minerals (Figure 12).
