Name: Stannoidite RRUFF ID: R160066 Ideal Chemistry: Cu8(Fe,Zn)3Sn2S12 Locality: Junction mine, Warren District, Cochise County, Arizona, USA Source: University of Arizona Mineral Museum 3169 [view label] Owner: RRUFF Description: Black grains in massive bornite and chalcopyrite matrix. Under optical microscope, stannoidite crystals are brownish. The gray-pinkish material is bornite and light-gray is chalcopyrite. Status: The identification of this mineral is confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction and chemical analysis. |
