DE MAPIMI, DURANGO, MEXICO (small cabinet)","description":"\u003cp\u003eWhile pure adamite is colorless, it often exhibits a yellow hue due to the presence of iron compounds. Additionally, green shades can be observed, which are attributed to copper substitutions within its structure. \u003cstrong\u003eOlivenite, a copper arsenate, shares an isostructural relationship with adamite, and there is significant substitution between zinc and copper, leading to the formation of an intermediate known as\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cstrong\u003ecuproadamite\u003c\/strong\u003e. Recently identified, zincolivenite is another intermediate mineral characterized by the formula CuZn(AsO4)(OH), and the structure can also accommodate substitutions from manganese, cobalt, and nickel. Furthermore, a related zinc phosphate mineral called tarbuttite has been documented.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis ADAMITE on LIMONITE specimen offers a remarkable solution, combining two fascinating minerals in a compact, display-friendly size.
