As far as I can see this is rather Poughite than Schmitterite.

Hello Stephan and Uwe,


This specimen was sold to me as Schmitterite, however the dealer didn't know if it was analyzed, after further inspection I believe it is poughite like you have suggested Stephan. I will change it immediately, and thanks for pointing this out.


Edit: now fixed
