Type Occurrence of ScainiiteHide

Type Locality:

ⓘ Buca della Vena Mine, Pontestazzemese, Stazzema, Lucca Province, Tuscany, Italy

General Appearance of Type Material:

Acicular crystals, elongated [010], black in colour with bluish metallic luster. The bluish colour apparently arises from a superficial very low hydrothermal alteration of the crystals. Up to 2 mm long and 0.2 mm thick

Place of Conservation of Type Material:

Museo di Storia Naturale e del Territorio, Pisa University, Italy Catalogue numbers: 15521, 15522, 15523.
Musée de l'Ecole des Mines de Paris, France.

Geological Setting of Type Material:

Late extensional calcite veins embedded in the dolomitic limestones.

Associated Minerals at Type Locality:

Stibnite
