About GanomaliteHide

Formula:

Pb₉Ca₅Mn(Si₂O₇)₄(SiO₄)O

Colour:

Greyish white

Lustre:

Vitreous, Resinous

Hardness:

Specific Gravity:

5.7

Crystal System:

Hexagonal

Name:

Named in 1876 by Nils Adolf Erik Nordenskiöld from the Greek γανωμα = brilliance due to the mineral's adamantine luster.

Type Locality:

ⓘ Långban Mine, Långban Ore District, Filipstad, Värmland County, Sweden

The Mn (or rather Ca5Mn-) analogue of wayneburnhamite.
Fresh ganomalite displays a high lustre but surfaces turn dull white with time.
