|   |   | Name: Yeatmanite RRUFF ID: R141001 Ideal Chemistry: Zn6Mn2+9Sb5+2O12(SiO4)4 Locality: 1500 foot level, Sterling mine, Sterling Hill, Ogdensburg, Franklin Mining District, Sussex County, New Jersey, USA Source: Rock Currier [view label] Owner: RRUFF Description: Thin brown or grey platy crystals, associated with yellow adelite. Twinned by a 2-fold around (001). Previously published structure is probably incorrect. Status: The identification of this mineral has been confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. |
