Borocookeite is usually found at a late stage pocket species in tourmaline-rich miarolitic pegmatites. This mineral is usually found at its type of locality at Malkhan gem tourmaline deposit, Central Transbaikalia, Russia. Mineral Borocookeite was named as the boron-rich analog […]
The chemical composition of mineral Borishanskiite is indicated by the formula Pd1+x(As,Pb)2, x = 0-0.2. Borishanskiite is also commonly found in massive and disseminated Cu-Ni sulfide ores. Borishanskiite is usually found at its type of locality at Oktyabr mine, Talnakh area, Noril’sk region, western, USSR. Borishanskiite was named for S.S. Borishanski, Soviet mineralogist. Borishanskiite is […]
The chemical formula of mineral Boothite is indicated by CuSO4•7(H2O). Boothite is considered as a secondary mineral in sulfide ores. It is also known as an ephemeral mineral and virtually impossible to preserve in an artifcial environment. Boothite is commonly found at its type of locality at Alma pyrite mine, Leona Heights, Alameda Co. California. […]
The chemical formula of mineral Bonaccordite is indicated by Ni2Fe+++BO5. This mineral is most commonly found at small tabular body of nickeliferous serpentinite, probably a contact deposit, along the junction of quartzite and an ultramafic intrusive. This mineral can possibly be found in this environment because of a nickel-rich meteorite impact. Bonaccordite is most commonly […]
