Clara Miner mineral

for you what is it this mineral from Clara Mine?

Hallo Matteo,

my opinion is, that it can be a mineral "in direction to" Cervantit or Ferritungstit (?) but I'm not sure.
I'm only sure, that it is no Tungstibit (this mineral would be more oliv or greenish) and it's no Rankachit for me. Near the "prickly" mineral I see a possibly "Sb-Fahlerz".. I Think so) but without analyse (X-Ray) I can't tell you what it is real. Perhaps Uwe Kolitsch can tell more ..:-)

thanks....problem is in the label is write only Clara....end

Hi Matteo,
could be (slightly oxidised) tungstibite or, less probably, cervantite. Unfortunately, it's impossible to tell from the photo alone.

I am for the cervantite, I have look another piece i have in collection and its the same, thanks.

Matteo,

taking the colour as an indicator that tends to be Tungstibite for me. Tungstibite has different colours at Clara Mine from bright green to dark olive green. This colour isn't unusual for Tungstibite there. I know Cervantite from Clara Mine always brighter.
