TitleEndlichite
DescriptionEndlichite, Pb5(V,As)O4)Cl, is an intermediary member between mimetite and vanadinite. It is usually regarded as an arsenic-rich variety of vanadinite. As such, some of the vanadate ions have been partially replaced by arsenate, AsO4, ions. Wholesale replacement eventually produces mimetite.
LocationUSA ▹ Nevada. Near Hillsboro.
