Formula:
Ag8SnS6
Name:
The name was first published without approval by Weining Zhou (1994), p. 235 (second last entry in table 2), under the chinese name "八家子矿", which translates to "Bajiazite" ("八家子" = Bajiazi, which is the FRL of tellurocanfieldite. Later this mineral was approved as a new mineral given the name Tellurocanfieldite (IMA 2012-013). The approval for this mineral was later withdrawn by the IMA. A subsequent single-crystal structural analysis has shown that Te is disordered
over the three sulfur sites and thus the material
is in fact Te-rich canfieldite.
