This page is currently not sponsored. Click here to sponsor this page.
Formula:
Pb8Bi6S17
One of proposed formulas reported in the original paper: Pb13Bi10S28
Crystal System:
Monoclinic
Reported as compositionally similar to lillianite. The formula might (alternatively) be the same as that of giessenite (which differs in terms of PXRD pattern) or bursaite.
