| ✪ Argyrodite Formula: Ag8GeS6 Description: "In 1921 a rich pocket of argyrodite was discovered in the “clavo Block” of the Gallofa vein. The mineral was encountered as compact masses and as magnificent simple octahedrons and sometimes with gemmy cube like calcite crystals associated with pyrargyrite, loellingite and rammelsbergite, sphalerite and quartz. Beautiful small star like little dodecahedral penetration twins were also rarely encountered." Ahlfeld & Reyes (1955) |
