Description: Noted as very rare, identified by a few minute crystals and remained incompletely described by 1965. Discovered by Mark Robinson in the latter 1950's in an ancient underground stope of the Ecton Mine. Mistakenly, but understandably, misidentified as Leadhillite, later correctly identified by Mary. E. Mrose in early 1960's by optical and x-ray crystallographic analysis.
