Abstract/NotesThe new mineral tooeleite occurs with pyrite, arsenopyrite, scorodite, and jarosite at the U.S. Mine, Tooele Country, Utah. Analysis by electron microprobe gave Fe2O3 43.56%, As2O5 38.61%, SO3 7.24%, and H2O by the Penfield method 9.80%. For this analysis, the suggested formula is Fe8-2x3+[(AS1-xSx)O4]6(OH)6.5H20; x is about 0.2.Crystals are orthorhombic, perhaps Pbcm or Pbc21, with a = 6.416, b 19.45, c = 8.941 Å. The strongest diffraction lines are [d in Å, (hkl), (I)] 9.75 (020) (10); 3.208 (200,132) (9); 3.047 (061,220) (5); 4.476 ({002) (4) and 2.680 (240,113) (4). The mineral is optically negative with a small 2V; α = 1.94, β = 2.05, γ = 2.06. Hardness = 3, Dmeas = 4.23, Dcalc = 4.15 g/cm3 for Z = 2.
