About HawleyiteHide

James Edwin (Ed) Hawley

Formula:

CdS

Colour:

Bright yellow

Hardness:

2½ - 3

Specific Gravity:

4.87 (Calculated)

Crystal System:

Isometric

Member of:

Sphalerite Group

Name:

Named in 1955 by Robert James Traill and Robert William Boyle in honor of Professor James Edwin (Ed) Hawley [September 27, 1897 Kingston, Ontario, Canada – April 20, 1965], professor of mineralogy at Queens University, Kingston, Ontario, Canada and a specialist in sulfide ore deposit theory.

Type Locality:

ⓘ Hector-Calumet mine (Calumet mine - Hector mine), Calumet, Galena Hill, Mayo mining district, Yukon, Canada

Dimorph of:

Greenockite

Yellow powdery coatings that also look like greenockite. Much that is attributed to greenockite is actually hawleyite.
