Name: Hurlbutite
RRUFF ID: R070612
Ideal Chemistry: CaBe2(PO4)2
Locality: Viitaniemi, Erajarvi, Orivesi, Etela-Suomen Laani, Finland
Source: James Shigley [view label]
Owner: RRUFF
Description: Light brown, massive, associated with beryllonite, hydroxylherderite, and apatite. The hurlbutite is very fine-grained holding the other coarser mineral fragments in place.
Status: The identification of this mineral has been confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction.
