About Baiamareite
Formula:
Ag4Pb12Fe4Sb20S48
Crystal System:
Monoclinic
Name:
For the famous Baia Mare mining district, NW Romania, which comprises world-class polymetallic ore deposits.
The Fe analogue of uchucchacuaite. As such, it may also be grouped in the andorite series. Chemically comparable with ginelfite.
