Abstract
The rare copper vanadium sulphide, sulvanite, was found close to the surface, near the old mining camp of Mercur, Utah, in a fissure in carboniferous limestone, which is underlain by quartzite and overlain by red shale. This is the second authentic occurrence and the fourth reported one for this rare mineral. Sulvanite was first described from Australia and the two doubtful localities are in Argentina and in Siberia.
