In the ideal end-member Fe3+:Cu is 2:1.
Colour:
Yellow
Lustre:
Earthy
Hardness:
3½ - 4½

Name:
Originally named beaverite for its first recorded occurrence in Beaver County, Utah, USA. Redefined and renamed by Bayliss et al. (2010) as beaverite-(Cu), for its specific composition.
Originally named beaverite.
Compare beaverite-(Zn).
Forms a solid solution series with its Al analogue osarizawaite.
Can be distinguished from plumbojarosite only by accurate determination of the Fe:Cu ratio.
Other Fe members of the alunite family are also visually very similar.
