Just a mere guess here, but could they be well-crystallized Variscite xls?

Scorodite?

21st Feb 2010 10:44 UTCLefteris Rantos Expert

Scorodite in a phosphate assemblage (with kidwellite and dufrenite) would be unlikely... Although in Montmins both phosphates and arsenates occur. But can they be in such a direct association?
