About Zincolivenite
Formula:
CuZn(AsO4)(OH)
Colour:
Green, greenish blue
Lustre:
Vitreous
Hardness:
3½
Specific Gravity:
4.34
Crystal System:
Orthorhombic
Member of:
Name:
Named after its composition containing zinc and its relationship to Olivenite.
Olivenite Group.
Structurally distinct, intermediate member of the solid solution series between Olivenite and Adamite with a Zn:Cu ratio of (ideally) 1:1; Zn and Cu atoms are ordered on two differently coordinated sites in the crystal structure. Chukanov et al. (2007) suggest the following compositional ranges for zincolivenite: Cu0.5Zn1.5(AsO4)(OH)-Cu1.5Zn0.5(AsO4)(OH).
NOTE: prior to the approval of zincolivenite, the names 'zinc-olivenite' or 'Zn-olivenite' were also used for Zn-bearing olivenites with unspecified Zn:Cu ratios. Many "cuproadamite" or "cuprian adamite" specimens were also found to actually be zincolivenite, see: https://www.mindat.org/mesg-492496.html.
Arsenate analogue of Zincolibethenite.
