UM1987-16-Se:BiPbTe

This page is currently not sponsored. Click here to sponsor this page.
Formula:
(Bi,Pb)2(Se,Te,S)3
Compositionally similar to guanajuatite and paraguanajuatite.

Co-described with 'UM1987-17-Se:BiTe', as an associate of skippenite and watkinsonite. Rarely also associated with poubaite. Nevskite may also be associated.

Both Pb-bearing lamellae and Pb-poor domains are found.
