Sulfides: antimonnickel

Semi-precious stones, gems Diagnostic Card.

Ni Sb
Crystal system hexagonal
5.5 Hardness
Specific gravity 7,5-8,2
Colour red
The color of the powder is reddish-brown, black
shine metal

Submitted by rare individuals hexagonal crystalline flattened shape. More common scattered branching education and small dense masses. Colour copper-colored, with a sheen of purple tones.

Origin.
Antimonnickel occurs in association with native silver, silver minerals and silver-arsenic minerals.

Deposits and application.
Beautiful patterns in the form of prismatic crystals and small clusters of massive copper-red color found in the mines of Sar-Rabus in Sardinia (Monte Nar-ba Masaloni, Giovanni Bon).

Antimonnickel occurs together with sphalerite, ulmanitom, millerite, galena. Less interesting, but more numerous samples breytgauptita mined in Andreasberg in the Harz (Germany), and Cobalt, Ontario (Canada). Antimonnickel has little practical application.

Toxic and hazardous radioactive rocks and minerals

** - Poisonous stones and minerals (obligatory check in chemical laboratory + clear indication of toxicity)
** - Radioactive rocks and minerals (obligatory check on a regular dosimeter + ban on the open sale of radioactivity in the event of more than 24 mR / hour + additional measures to protect the population)
