No.: 5516
Size: 6 x 3 x 2.5 cm
Formula: Copiapite - Fe(II)Fe(III)4(SO4)6(OH)2 · 20H2O; Coquimbite - AlFe3(SO4)6(H2O)12 · 6H2O; Halloysite - Al2(Si2O5)(OH)4
Description: Secondary minerals of supergene origin can be found in various environments, especially in areas of oxidation of metalliferous ore deposits containing sulfides. These supergene alteration minerals are mainly formed through oxidation of common sulfides (especially pyrite) and then through precipitation from acid mine drainage (AMD).
