Abstract:Abstract. The two new minerals igelströmite, Fe3+(Sb3+Pb2+)O4, and manganoschafarzikite, Mn2+Sb23+O4, are found in the Långban Fe–Mn deposit, in open fractures in a fine-grained hematite ore, with minor amounts of aegirine, a serpentine-group mineral, fluorcalcioroméite, baryte, nadorite, mimetite and other late-stage minerals. Igelströmite is named after the Swedish geologist–mineralogist Lars Johan Igelström (1822–1897). Mohs hardness = 3–4 and Dcalc= 6.33(1) and 5.37(2) g cm−3 for igelströmite and manganosc… Show more
