Formula:
Cu7S4
System:
Orthorhombic
Colour:
Bluish-Grey
Lustre:
Metallic
Hardness:
3
Name:
For the type locality.
Note: Many of the reported associations of digenite and djurleite, identified by powder diffraction, could be anilite and djurleite, as anilite transforms to digenite during grinding (Goble, 1985).
If heated, anilite decomposes to high digenite and covellite above 70 +- 3°C (Morimoto & Koto, 1970).
