Xanthoconite and Rittingerite, with remarks on the Red Silvers

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  14 March 2018

Extract

The name xanthoconite was given by Breithaupt (1) to a mineral which he found in 1840 associated with proustite upon an old ore-specimen in the collection of the Berg-Akademie at Freiberg. He describes it as occurring in reniform masses with a surface consisting of microscopic crystals, but with a crystalline granular interior.
