About Tennantite-(Zn)Hide

Formula:
Cu6(Cu4Zn2)As4S12S
Lustre:
Metallic
Crystal System:
Isometric
Name:
Named during a reclassification of the tetrahedrite group (IMA proposal 18-K, detailed in Biagioni et al. (2020)). The type material proposed by Biagioni et al. was previously named binnite.
A new group member added due to the acceptance of the IMA 18-K proposal.

Less common than tennantite-(Fe) with which it forms a complete solid-solution series.

Compare, e.g., UM2001-13-S:AsCuSbZn.
