Description: A recent (Oct. 2025) EDX analysis of the only known specimen revealed that the Mg content was below the detection limit. Instead, the Fe content is consistent with that of symplesite or parasymplesite. As the previous identification probably relied primarily on determining the unit cell, and the unit cell of hörnesite is very similar to that of the other vivianite-group mineral, parasymplesite, it is possible that this is the source of the confusion. In short: hörnesite has been erroneously reported from this locality. Parasymplesite is a much more likely candidate.
