| Abstract/Notes | AbstractGortdrumite superficially resembles chalcocite but is more distinctly anisotropic, and is present in a vein containing ferroan dolomite and baryte which cuts dolomitized limestones from the Gortdrum Orebody of County Tipperary, Ireland. It has an empirical formula of approximately (Cu,Fe)6Hg2S5. A distinctive powder diffraction X-ray pattern has been obtained which indicates a probable orthorhombic crystal lattice with a 14.96, b 7.90, and c 24.1 Å. The reflectivity at 589 nm is 25.1 to 27.9% and the VHN10 hardness range 186 to 230. |
