LOLLINGITE (minature)
$165.00 AUD
Loellingite is a rare iron arsenide mineral (FeAs2) that is commonly found alongside iron and copper sulfides in hydrothermal vein deposits.
Loellingite belongs to a category of iron, cobalt, and nickel arsenides that crystallize in an orthorhombic structure and are referred to as sulfide minerals, despite containing minimal sulfur. For more details, refer to the sulfide mineral section.
It generally appears with traces of cobalt, nickel, and arsenic, as seen at the Andreas-Berg in the Ore Mountains (Erzgebirge) of Germany; Andalusia, Spain; and Franklin, New Jersey, U.S.
