Beudantite from
Burdell Gill, Coombe Height, Caldbeck, Allerdale, Cumbria, England, UK
| Locality type: | River | |
| Classification | ||
|---|---|---|
| Species: | Beudantite | |
| Formula: | PbFe33+(AsO4)(SO4)(OH)6 | |
| Comments: | Cooper & Stanley (1990): "Occurs in three forms on specimens collected by D.R. Middleton from dumps of the old workings near the head of the gill." | |
| Habit: | sheafy aggregates of acute rhombohedral crystals to 2 mm, partially embedded in massive beudantite on quartz; and minute (< 1 mm) brownish crystals of pseudo-octahedral aspect resulting from the equal development of the pinacoid and a rhombohedron. On this latter habit the rhombohedron faces are lustrous whilst the pinacoids are dull; these characters show that the habit is not an isometric octahedron (det. BM(NH): XRD). | |
