Thebaite-(NH 4 ), (NH 4 ,K) 3 Al(C 2 O 4 )(PO 3 OH) 2 (H 2 O), a new phosphate–oxalate mineral from the Rowley mine, Arizona, USA
Thebaite-(NH 4 ), (NH 4 ,K) 3 Al(C 2 O 4 )(PO 3 OH) 2 (H 2 O), is a new mineral species (IMA2020-072) from the Rowley mine, Maricopa County, Arizona, USA. It occurs in an unusual bat-guano-related, post-mining assemblage of phases that include a variety of vanadates, phosphates, oxalates and chlorid...
