About DuftiteHide

Formula:
PbCu(AsO4)(OH)
Colour:
Olive-green, grey-green
Lustre:
Sub-Vitreous, Resinous, Waxy, Dull
Hardness:
Specific Gravity:
6.12
Crystal System:
Orthorhombic
Name:
Named by Otto Pufahl in 1920 for Gustav Bernhard Duft [b. 1859 Clausthal, Germany - 1924?], second General Manager of the Tsumcor Mine (Tsumeb Mine), Namibia (~1906), but Duft was active in Namibia as early as 1892. Guillemin (1956) distinguished two kinds of duftite: "duftite-α" = duftite (space group Pnam) and (Ca-bearing) "duftite-β" = duftite (space group P212121).
Adelite-Descloizite Group. Conichalcite-Duftite Series. Duftite-Mottramite Series.

Duftite-alpha is possibly a variety of Duftite isostructural with descloizite (for literature see duftite). Modern studies needed.

Duftite-β was found to be a compositional intermediate in the conichalcite-duftite series, which has a modulated structure based on the intergrowth of the two structures in domains of approximately 50 Å (Kharisun et al., 1998).

Originally described from Tsumeb Mine (Tsumcorp Mine), Tsumeb, Otjikoto (Oshikoto) Region, Namibia.
