Colour:Dark green, olive-green, ...Lustre:Vitreous, Silky
Hardness:3½ - 4½
Name:After P.A. Dufrénoy (1792-1857), French mineralogist.


A secondary mineral occurring with limonite in gossan of veins and in iron ore deposits.

See also natrodufrénite which appears to be much more common than presently thought (Henry Barwood, unpubl. results).

A (formally) vacancy- and Mn2+-dominant member was reported by Sejkora et al. (2006).

Physical Properties of Dufrénite

Lustre:Vitreous, Silky
Diaphaneity (Transparency):Translucent, Opaque
Colour:Dark green, olive-green, olive-brown, black; olive-brown to reddish brown with oxidation; bluish green to reddish brown or yellow in transmitted light.
Streak:Green
Hardness (Mohs):3½ - 4½
