Jahnsite-(CaMnZn) (original) (raw)
A valid IMA mineral species
Formula:
CaMn2+Zn2Fe3+2(PO4)4(OH)2 · 8H2O
Specific Gravity:
2.87 (Calculated)
Crystal System:
Monoclinic
Name:
The root name is in honor of Richard Henry Jahns (March 10, 1915 Los Angeles, California, USA - December 31, 1983 Palo Alto, California, USA), mineralogist and pegmatite expert, Stanford University, Palo Alto, California, USA. The suffix indicates metal site occupancies, according to the IMA naming convention for the janhsite group.
