Abstract

Jamesonite is described in Dana (1892, p. 122) as a soft, brittle, steel-grey to lead-grey mineral forming acicular orthorhombic crystals, a: b = ‘0·915:1’ (in error for 0·8195:1), with perfect basal cleavage; composition, 2PbS.Sb2S3; principal occurrence, Cornwall. Jamesonite is taken as the type member of a group that includes cosalite, described in the first of these studies (1939), dufrenoysite, and other minerals of analogous composition.
