About MatilditeHide

Formula:
AgBiS2
Colour:
Iron-black to gray
Lustre:
Metallic
Hardness:
Specific Gravity:
6.9
Crystal System:
Trigonal
Name:
From the type locality, the Matilda Mine, near Morococha, Peru.
Dimorph of:
Matildite Group.

Corresponds to the low-temperature (beta) form of synthetic AgBiS2. The high-temperature (alpha) form is only stable above 195 +- 5°C (Wu, 1989).

Solid solution between matildite and galena is complete above 215 +- 15°C; below this temperature characteristic Widmanstätten structure-like textures are formed through exsolution (Craig, 1967). Also forms a solid solution with bohdanowiczite.
