Type Locality:
Description: Much doubt has been generated concerning lillianite from the original locality. Gustav Flink made a crystallographic study of "lillianite" in 1910, but Berry (1940) suggested that Flink's data could be identical to that of galenobismuthite, but with "c" doubled and concluded, based on XRD studies that "lillianite" was heterogeneous. Paul Ramdohr (1969) wrote - "Normally not stable at low temperature and actually broken down into a mixture of Pb- and Bi-sulfides, mostly galena and galenobismuthite [and acanthite], but sometimes intact." Ramdohr mentioned that similar heterogeneity was observed from other occurrences. An occurrence at IilijΓ€rvi [JilijΓ€rvi], Finland was believed by Ramdohr to have authentic lillianite, that is not transformed into a mixture over time. Syritso and Senerova (1964) studied the lillianite problem and provided data which "confirmed and enlarged" knowledge of the mineral from Finland. Otto and Strunz (1968) synthesized a homogeneous mineral with lillianite's formula and properties.
