Member of:Plagionite Group
Name:
For Andor von Semsey (1833-1923), a Nobleman and amateur Hungarian mineralogist, whose first name gave rise to Andorite.


Plagionite Group

Semseyite belongs to a homologous series of lead antimony sulphides. The structure contains sheets of galena, the thickness of this sheet determines the position in the homologous series. Semseyite has the thickest sheet and fülöppite the thinnest.

2 : SULFIDES and SULFOSALTS (sulfides, selenides, tellurides; arsenides, antimonides, bismuthides; sulfarsenites, sulfantimonites, sulfbismuthites, etc.)
H : Sulfosalts of SnS archetype
C : With only Pb
Dana 8th edition ID:3.6.20.4

3 : SULFOSALTS
6 : 2 < ø < 2.49
Hey's CIM Ref.:5.6.13

5 : Sulphosalts - Sulpharsenites and Sulphobismuthites (those containing Sn, Ge,or V are in Section 6)
6 : Sulpharsenites etc. of Pb alone
