Aravaipaite from
Grand Reef Mine, Laurel Canyon, Grand Reef Mountain, Klondyke, Aravaipa Mining District, Graham County, Arizona, USA


Locality type:Mine
Classification
Species:Aravaipaite
Formula:Pb3AlF9 · H2O
Comments:Aravaipaite, grandreefite, pseudograndreefite, and laurelite were originally found together in a vug surrounded by layers of quartz, fluorite, and galena. The new minerals are interpreted as resulting from the reaction of supergene solutions with galena and fluorite. Aravaipaite occurs as thin plates, 0.001 to 0.1 mm thick, and up to 3 mm across. The plates are lamellar on {010}, the only prominently developed face. The combination of conditions that resulted in the formation of these four new minerals thus far appears to have been unique, since only one vug containing these minerals has been recognized during nearly a century of intense interest in this mine on the part of mineral collectors. The pocket was about 8 cm. in diameter.
