About GustaviteHide

Formula:
AgPbBi3S6
Lustre:
Metallic
Hardness:
3½
Specific Gravity:
7.01 (Calculated)
Crystal System:
Orthorhombic
Name:
Named by S. Karup-Møller in honor of Gustav Adolph Hageman (16 May 1842, Rodsteenseje, Denmark - 26 April 1916, Snekkersten, Denmark), chemical engineer for the Cryolite Firm (Ivigtut, Greenland), industrialist and politician.
Isostructural with:
Gustavite-Lillianite Series.

Natural gustavite appears to be monoclinic (Harris & Chen, 1975; Makovicky & Karup-Møller, 1977) due to Ag-Bi ordering, while synthetic gustavite was found to be orthorhombic (Bente et al., 1993).
An Sb-rich, monoclinic gustavite has been characterised by Pažout & Dušek (2009); it may be a new species.

An apparent Se analogue was reported (Unnamed (Ag-Pb-Bi Selenide)).

Crystallography of GustaviteHide

This section is currently hidden. Click the show button to view.
Crystal System:
Orthorhombic
Class (H-M):
mmm(2/m2/m2/m) - Dipyramidal
Cell Parameters:
a = 13.54 Å, b = 19.44 Å, c = 4.1 Å
Ratio:
a:b:c = 0.697 : 1 : 0.211
Unit Cell V:
1,079.19 ų (Calculated from Unit Cell)
Z:
4
Morphology:
Tabular crystals, sometimes bent.
Twinning:
Two twin laws found in type material. The first is very common; repeated twinning with an irregular composition plane parallel to the tabular plates. The second is uncommon; composition plane perpendicular to the tabular plates.
Comment:
Data for synthetic gustavite. Type material appears to be monoclinic, with P21/c cell with a = 7.077 (7) Å, b = 19.566 (12) Å, c = 8.272 (8) Å and beta = 107.18 (9)° (Harris & Chen, 1975). Makovicky & Topa (2011) give, for a crystal from Rotgülden, the following unit-cell parameters (space group P21/c): a = 7.0567(14), b = 19.6905(39), c = 8.2219(16) Å, beta = 106.961(3)°, V = 1092.7(2) Å3.
