Formula: Ca₂Fe³⁺₃(AsO₄)₃O₂ · 3H₂O

Habit: Micaceous flake in ball

Colour: Orange to creamy.

Description: Sample visually identified as arseniosiderite (former collection Roger Vernay - https://www.mindat.org/photo-1523099.html) has been SEM-EDS analysed at "Laboratoire Magmas et Volcans - Université de Clermont-Ferrand" by Pascal Chollet & William Péraud. It showed Fe, Cu, Sb, As and O Next : after being photographied, it has been put in an ultrasonic cleaner to remove dust, to try to take a better picture : it almost desintegrated, showing an empty structure : a dead box ! (probable perimorphosis of a dissolved unknown mineral)
