Arrojadite-(KFe) from
Rapid Creek, Dawson mining district, Yukon, Canada


Locality type:Creek
Classification
Species:Arrojadite-(KFe)
Formula:(KNa)(Fe2+◻)Ca(Na2◻)Fe132+Al(PO4)11(PO3OH)(OH)2
Comments:At Rapid Creek, arrojadite occurs in fractured cutting siderite-rich sandstone, often as the only mineral present. Infrequently associated minerals may include quartz, kryzhanovskite, whiteite, vivianite and metavivianite…Normally the crystals range from 5 mm to 1.5 cm in size and are olive-green to clove-brown or yellow in color. Divergent aggregates subparallel on {100} are relatively common, but whether this is a result of twinning or parallel growth has not been resolved as pr. 2009.
Habit:tabular
Colour:green, honey-brown
Confirmation
Validity:Believed Valid
