Lyonsite
Script error: No such module "Infobox".Script error: No such module "Check for unknown parameters". Lyonsite (Cu3Fe+34(VO4)6) is a rare black vanadate mineral that is opaque with a metallic lustre. It crystallizes in the orthorhombic crystal system. Lyonsite often occurs as small tabular typically well formed crystals. Lyonsite has a good cleavage and a dark gray streak.
Lyonsite occurs as a sublimate in volcanic fumaroles. It is often associated with howardevansite and thenardite.[1] It was first described in 1987 for an occurrence on the Izalco volcano, El Salvador. It was named for mineralogist John Bartholomew Lyons (1916–1998) of Dartmouth College.[2] It has also been reported from a mine dump in the Lichtenberg Absetzer Mine of Thuringia, Germany.[3]
