Arsenian nagyagite from Sacarimb, Romania: a possible new mineral species
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 05 July 2018
Abstract
Arsenic-rich nagyagite (up to 5.5 wt % As) has been discovered in samples from the Au-Ag-Te deposit of Sacarimb, western Romania. Optical properties of the mineral show small but distinct differences to nagyagite (ss). Chemical analyses indicate a substitution of As for Sb, and chemical zonation suggests rapid changes in the chemistry of the mineralising fluids.
