Formula:
Fe3+3(AsO4)2(OH)3 · 3H2O
Name:
Named in 1893 by Karl Heinrich Emil Georg Busz for the type locality.
The arsenate analogue of tinticite.
Structurally related to afmite, chemically related to tooeleite.
The higher hydrate when compared to ferrisymplesite. Also chemically similar to kaatialaite, bendadaite, and césarferreiraite.
Visually similar to jarosite and other members of the Jarosite Subgroup.
Structure details (Kolitsch et al., 2016):
- 3 octahedrally coordinated (O) Fe(Al) sites
- 2 tetrahedrally coordinated (T) As sites;
- zigzag chains (along [110]) of dimers formed by 2 edge-sharing FeO6 octahedra, that corner-link to another octahedron
- mixed O-T framework formed by corner-linking of chains and tetrahedra
- layering || (001)
- channels along [010].
