Formula:
GaN
Crystal System:
Hexagonal
Found in East Pacific sediments ("between the Clarion and Clipperton Fracture Zone"). Analyzed using TEM, EDS, and EELS techniques.
As euhedral and autigenic crystals (thus, synthetic origin is likely discluded, as long transport from potential anthropogenic land sources would cause tossing).
