The second mineral with essential tantalum and boron after holtite.\r\n\r\nPossibly crystallochemically related to xenotime-(Y) (Ondrejka et al., 2022).","Named after Jean Jacques Francis Béhier (2 March 1903, Paris, France - 11 May 1965, Tsaratanana district, Betsiboka, Madagascar), French mineralogist at the Service Géologique (Geological Survey) of Madagascar, who found the mineral in 1959 when he was examining material collected in 1953.\r\n\r\nBéhier was a self-taught mineralogist who brought together a collection of more than 5,000 pieces divided into three parts: French minerals, European minerals and Malagasy minerals. This collection was established thanks to his numerous field surveys and numerous exchanges carried out from 1925 to 1965.\r\n\r\nJean Béhier was a member of the Société française de minéralogie (French Mineralogical Society) from 1931, he became a prospector and teacher for the Commissariat à l'énergie atomique (CEA, Atomic Energy Commission) after the Second World War, shortly after its creation on October 18, 1945.\r\n\r\nIn 1946, he was assigned to the Malagasy CEA and then to the Geological Service in Madagascar in 1953. He was of great help in the development of Madagascar's mining industry. He described numerous mineral species there and published numerous articles and works from 1949 to 1962. Then, he reorganized and expanded the collection of the Geological Service of Madagascar. In 1951, he made a long stay in mainland France, where he resumed his field research work. He returned to Madagascar in 1952 where he resumed his initial work. In August and September 1956 he was assigned to the reorganization of the mineralogy museum of Maputo (Lourenço Marques at the time) in Mozambique. Béhier, in collaboration with the analytical laboratories of Madagascar, France and Washington, described approximately 70 new mineral species from Madagascar, including hibonite. Until his death in 1965, he also worked on the organization and improvement of the National Museum of Geology and the Mineralogy Laboratory of the Geological Survey. He was responsible for establishing the list of mineral species prohibited for export, listed in the Mining Law. This list was officially established to protect Madagascar's rare minerals, but in reality Béhier probably did this so that he would be the only person legally authorized to export minerals to museums and mineral collectors outside of Madagascar.\r\n\r\nHis work was crowned by the discovery of two new mineral species, hibonite and béhierite. Béhierite, a new mineral species that he discovered and described in Madagascar, was named in his honour in 1961. A large part of his collection was acquired in 2001 by various collectors.\r\n\r\nOn May 11, 1965, as he was preparing to return to France, he was killed in a plane crash in the northeast of Madagascar.","2025-08-11 12:14:18",[],[],[],[],[76],{"id":77,"txt":78,"latitude":79,"longitude":80,"country":81},2271,"Manjaka (Sahananana), Sahatany Valley, Ibity, Antsirabe II District, Vakinankaratra, Madagascar",-20.0920678,46.959683,"Madagascar",6,[84,87,91,94,98,101,106,110,115,120,124,128,132,137,142],{"id":85,"year":24,"html":86,"doi":11},16318416,"Behier, Jean (1960) Travaux minéralogiques, in \u003Ci>Rapport Annuel du Service géologique pour 1960\u003C\u002Fi>. \u003Ci>Rapport Annuel du Service géologique\u003C\u002Fi>,  1960. 181-199 \u003Ca target='_blank' href='\thttps:\u002F\u002Frruff-2.geo.arizona.edu\u002Fuploads\u002FRASG1960_181.pdf' class='refpdflink'>\u003C\u002Fa>",{"id":88,"year":89,"html":90,"doi":11},523572,1961,"Fleischer, M.
