Tellurocanfieldite
A variety of Canfieldite
This page is currently not sponsored. Click here to sponsor this page.
Formula:
Ag8Sn(S,Te)6
Crystal System:
Orthorhombic
First Recorded Locality:
A variety of Canfieldite
Originally approved but approval has subsequently been withdrawn because a subsequent single-crystal structural analysis has shown that Te is disordered over the three sulphur sites and thus the material is in fact Te-rich canfieldite.
