Other InformationHide

Thermal Behaviour:

Before the blowpipe, it fuses easily to a black glass, coloring the flame slightly pink.

Notes:

Only slightly affected by acids, even by boiling concentrated sulphuric acid. But readily decomposed by dilute sulphuric acid when heated in a sealed tube at a temperature of about 180°C.

Health Risks:

No information on health risks for this material has been entered into the database. You should always treat mineral specimens with care.
