Greenockite from
Andesite quarry, Kreimbach-Kaulbach, Lauterecken-Wolfstein, Kusel, Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany


Locality type:Quarry
Classification
Species:Greenockite
Formula:CdS
Comments:The greenockites all come from a narrow sulphide-bearing zone (they were often associated with galena crystals), which is now largely quarried away. Two important finds were made in this quarry, one in the early 1970s and another one by a local collector around 2002. The very large ones (> 1 cm) came from the latter find
Habit:perfect six-sided bipyramids, to 5 mm. The largest crystal is 1.8cm.
Colour:orange-yellow
Quality for species:Excellent - world class for species or very significant. (!!)
Abundance at site:Rare
Confirmation
Validity:Believed Valid
