Question regarding missing RATES info for Ca2SiO4 in PHREEQC

Dear All,
I am currently doing kinetics simulations that require RATES datablock for Calcium Silicate, Ca2SiO4, also known as calcium orthosilicate / calsil / larnite. I have searched in all the databases that I was able to find (including carbfix.dat, geothermal.dat, and diagenesis.dat), but there is no RATES info for this mineral. If you have an idea of where to find the missing info, I would highly appreciate it! If not, why there is no information on this quite common mineral?

Most of the rate compilations for PHREEQC are for common naturally-occurring minerals based on Palandri and Kharaka (2004) and Sverdrup et al. (2019). Here is a version based primarily on Palandri and Kharaka:

My guess is that Ca2SiO4 is most important in consideration of concrete processes, possibly as C2S or belite. In any case, I think you will have to look into the literature to see if you can find any relevant papers.
