About DorallchariteHide

Ržanovo deposit

Ržanovo Mine, Ržanovo, Kavadarci Municipality, North Macedonia

Formula:

TlFe³⁺₃(SO₄)₂(OH)₆

Colour:

Golden yellow

Lustre:

Earthy

Hardness:

3 - 4

Specific Gravity:

3.85 (Calculated)

Crystal System:

Trigonal

Member of:

Alunite Group > Alunite Supergroup

Name:

Named by T. Balic-Žunic, Y. Moëlo, Z. Loncar, H. Micheelsen in 1994. The name is a concatenation of the French word doré, for the mineral's golden yellow color, and Allchar, the type locality in Macedonia. The discoverers wanted to honor the very important locality but 'allcharite' had already been used on a later discredited mineral.

Type Locality:

ⓘ Allchar, Ržanovo, Kavadarci Municipality, North Macedonia

Locality ListHide

- This locality has map coordinates listed. - This locality has estimated coordinates. ⓘ - Click for references and further information on this occurrence. ? - Indicates mineral may be doubtful at this locality. - Good crystals or important locality for species. - World class for species or very significant. (TL) - Type Locality for a valid mineral species. (FRL) - First Recorded Locality for everything else (eg varieties). Struck out - Mineral was erroneously reported from this locality. Faded * - Never found at this locality but inferred to have existed at some point in the past (e.g. from pseudomorphs).

All localities listed without proper references should be considered as questionable.
