Arthur Aikin
Formula:
PbCuBiS3
Colour:
Blackish lead-grey
Lustre:
Metallic
Hardness:
2 - 2½
Specific Gravity:
7.06 - 7.08
Crystal System:
Orthorhombic
Name:
Named by E.J. Chapman in 1843 in honor of Dr. Arthur Aikin (19 May 1773, Warrington, Lancashire, England – 15 April 1854, Hoxton, London, England), chemist. Aikin was a founder, and for many years Secretary, of the Geological Society of London. He also authored a 'Manual of Mineralogy'.

Various other names were used for the mineral in early literature. Mohs (1804) used nadelerz, Hauy (1809) referred to it simply as bismuth sulfuré plumbo-cuprifère. The name patrinite was used by Haidinger (1845), belonite was used by Glocker (1847), and aciculite was used by Nicol (1849).
Aikinite-Bismuthinite Series.
