... of pavonite (AgBi 3 S 5 ) and matildite (AgBiS 2 ), which are the two main ternary mineral phases in the Ag-Bi-S system. These new results, coupled with a critical analysis of literature data, allow generation of a consistent set of thermodynamic values in the Ag-Bi-S system. The recommended standard values...

... in paragenesis with other Bi sulfosalts, chalcopyrite and hematite. Members of the pavonite homologous series are associated with bismuthinite derivatives and quartz of the amethyst variety. Three members of the cuprobismutite homologous series and four members of the pavonite homologous series have been found...

...Emil Makovicky; Werner H. Paar; Hubert Putz; Georg Zagler Abstract Dantopaite, Ag 5 Bi 13 S 22 , is the 6 P natural member of the pavonite homologous series. It is a very rare mineral in a quartz vein hosted by Variscan metagranitoids at the abandoned mining district at Erzwies, Gasteiner Valley...

...Gheorghie Ilinca; Emil Makovicky Abstract Theoretical X-ray powder diffraction patterns of all pavonite homologues with known crystal structures were calculated in order to: (1) determine the powder diffraction effects to be anticipated from homologues with scarce or no powder data available; (2...

...Masaaki Shimizu; Akira Kato Abstract A chemical analysis of pavonite from the Ikuno mine, Hyogo Prefecture, Japan, gives Ag 11.14, Cu 0.40, Fe 0.08, Mn 0.01, Pb 0.16, Bi 69.43, S 18.05, for a total 99.27 wt.%, corresponding to (Ag (sub 0.92) Cu (sub 0.06) Fe (sub 0.01) ) (sub Sigma 0.99) (Bi (sub...

...E. W. Nuffield Abstract Alaskaite (benjaminite) from Cerro Bonete, Sur-Lipez province, Bolivia has been found to be a new mineral: C2/m; a 13.35, b 4.03, c 16.34 Å, β 94 1 2 °; probable composition and cell contents 4[AgBi 3 S 5 ]. The species has been named pavonite from the Latin pavo, peacock...
