Ag10Sb2TeS5
Colour:
More blue than galena
Reported as "Mineral U". Composition not known among minerals. Chemically similar to 'UM1969-08-S:AgSbTe'.
Found (together with 'UM1969-08-S:AgSbTe', 'UM1969-09-S:AgTe', and 'UM1969-10-S:AgTe') at depths 260-360 m within quartz veins and quartz-calcite veins containing galena, chalcopyrite, sphalerite and rare pyrite and Ag-bearing tetrahedrite, at the Zyranov deposit.
The phase occurs as plates, up to 0.025 x 0.1 mm, within galena; intergrown with hessite and "Mineral Z" (UM1969-09-S:AgTe).
