(Mn,Mg)9(As3+O3)(AsO4)2(OH)9.2H2O
Triclinic
Synadelphite, a manganese arsenite arsenate hydroxide hydrate mineral, was first noted from Sterling Hill by Moore and Ito (1978). It occurs as dark brown fascicles (2-3 mm) of distorted crystals, intimately associated with kraisslite and allactite on a slip surface in the ore. A microprobe analysis by the writer is given in Table 25. It is best verified using X-ray methods. Synadelphite has not been reported from Franklin, and it is a very rare mineral locally.
