Notes / Further information
Bought by Breithaupt from Krantz in 1860.
There is no indication for Dana respectively Bergemann, but references of the first description note, that only one larger specimen was found. Therefore this sample should be a part of the original specimen. Associated with aerugite and xanthiosite. |
