Arsenobismite

A mixture of two or more distinct mineral species
This page is currently not sponsored. Click here to sponsor this page.
Colour:
Yellowish-brown, yellowish-green
Type material was shown to be a mixture of preisingerite, minor atelestite and minor beudantite/segnitite and the mineral was therefore discredited (Kolitsch, 1999).

Originally reported from Mammoth Mine (Mammoth shaft), Tintic District, East Tintic Mts, Juab Co., Utah, USA.
