Iron-bearing dantopaite from Kutná Hora ore district, Czech Republic, and its mineral association
Original language description
Dantopaite, a very rare sulfosalt of Ag-Bi(-Pb-Cu), has been found and identified in samples from Staročeské pásmoLode of the historic Ag-Pb-Zn Kutná Hora ore district, Czech Republic. Dantopaite, ideally Ag5Bi13S22, is the only mineralof the pavonite homologous series found in the Kutná Hora ore district and it is the first occurrence of this rare sulfosaltin Czech Republic. It was determined in four grains of two samples of massive sulfide ores consisting of arsenopyrite,pyrrhotite and chalcopyrite with no presence of Ag-Bi lillianite homologues, typical of the Ag-Bi mineralization of the deposit.Each analysed grain represents a different dantopaite composition with regard to the Ag + Bi = 2 Pb substitution.The empirical formulas range from Ag,Bi-richest composition of Ag3.62Cu0.25(Pb0.59Fe1.07Cd0.03)Ʃ1.69(Bi12.02Sb0.23) Ʃ12.25S22 tothe Pb-richest composition of Ag3.18Cu0.17(Pb1.83Fe1.30Cd0.03Mn0.05)Ʃ3.21(Bi11.71Sb0.08) Ʃ11.79S22. A specific feature of this occurrenceis the presence of iron in the chemical composition of this mineral, which is positively correlated with the leadcontent. The associated minerals include: a) minerals of the early sulfide stage (sphalerite, stannite) and cassiterite;b) minerals of the second sulfide stage: kenoargentotetrahedrite-(Fe) and minerals of the Ag-Bi mineralization (nativebismuth, matildite, Ag,Bi-bearing galena, dantopaite; c) minerals of the latest Ag-Sb period (acanthite, stephanite).An overview of members of the pavonite homologous series is given.
