Arsenite mineral
Introduction '''Arsenite minerals''' are very rare oxygen-bearing arsenic minerals. Classical world localities where such minerals occur include the complex skarn manganese deposit at Långban (Sweden) and the polymetallic Tsumeb deposit (Namibia). The most often reported arsenite anion in minerals is the AsO33− anion, present for example in reinerite Zn3(AsO3)2.Unique diarsenite anions occur i. e. in leiteite ZnAs2O4 and paulmooreite PbAs2O5.More complex arsenites include schneiderhöhnite Fe2+Fe3+3As5O13 and ludlockite PbFe3+4As10O22.
Nickel–Strunz classification -04- oxides IMA-CNMNC proposes a new hierarchical scheme (Mills et al., 2009). This list uses it to modify the Classification of Nickel–Strunz (mindat.org, 10 ed, pending publication). *Abbreviations:**"*" - IMA/CNMNC status: discredited.**"?" - IMA/CNMNC status: questionable/doubtful. **"REE" - Rare-earth element (Sc, Y, La, Ce, Pr, Nd, Pm, Sm, Eu, Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm, Yb, Lu)**"PGE" - Platinum-group element (Ru, Rh, Pd, Os, Ir, Pt)**03.C Aluminofluorides, 06 Borates, 08 Vanadates (04.H V5,6 Vanadates), 09 Silicates:***Neso: insular (from Greek νησος nēsos, island)***Soro: grouping (from Greek σωροῦ sōros, heap, mound (especially of corn))***Cyclo: ring***Ino: chain (from Greek ις genitive: ινος ''inos'', fibre)  ***Phyllo: sheet (from Greek φύλλον ''phyllon'', leaf) ***Tekto: three-dimensional framework*Nickel–Strunz code scheme: NN.XY.##x**NN: Nickel–Strunz mineral class number**X: Nickel–Strunz mineral division letter**Y: Nickel–Strunz mineral family letter**x: Nickel–Strunz mineral/group number, x add-on letter=== Class: arsenites ===* 04.H V5,6 Vanadates** 04.HB Uranyl Sorovanadates: 05 Carnotite, 05 Margaritasite; 10 Sengierite; 15 Fritzscheite, 15 Curienite, 15 Francevillite; 20 Metavanuralite, 20 Vanuralite; 25 Metatyuyamunite, 25 Tyuyamunite; 30 Strelkinite, 35 Uvanite, 40 Rauvite ** 04.HC 6-Sorovanadates: 05 Magnesiopascoite, 05 Lasalite, 05 Pascoite; 10 Hummerite, 15 Sherwoodite** 04.HD Inovanadates: 05 Rossite, 10 Metarossite, 15 Munirite, 20 Metamunirite, 25 Dickthomssenite, 30 Ansermetite** 04.HE Phyllovanadates: 05 Melanovanadite, 10 Shcherbinaite; 15 Hewettite, 15 Metahewettite; 20 Bokite, 20 Bariandite, 20 Corvusite, 20 Fernandinite, 20 Straczekite; 25 Haggite, 30 Doloresite, 35 Duttonite, 40 Cavoite** 04.HF Tektovanadates: 05 Bannermanite** 04.HG Unclassified V oxides: 05 Fervanite, 10 Huemulite, 15 Vanalite, 20 Simplotite, 25 Vanoxite, 30 Navajoite, 35 Delrioite, 40 Metadelrioite, 45 Barnesite, 50 Hendersonite, 55 Grantsite, 60 Lenoblite, 65 Satpaevite*04.J Arsenites, Antimonites, Bismuthites, Sulfites**04.JA Arsenites, antimonites, bismuthites; without additional anions, without H2O: 05 Leiteite, 10 Reinerite, 15 Karibibite; 20 Schafarzikite, 20 Trippkeite, 20 Kusachiite; 25 Apuanite, 30 Versiliaite, 35 Schneiderhohnite, 40 Zimbabweite; 45 Ludlockite, 45 Ludlockite-(Pb)*; 50 Paulmooreite, 55 Stibivanite, 60 Chadwickite  **04.JB Arsenites, antimonites, bismuthites; with additional anions, without H2O: 05 Fetiasite, 10 Manganarsite, 15 Magnussonite, 20 Armangite, 25 Nanlingite, 30 Asbecasite, 35 Stenhuggarite, 40 Trigonite, 45 Finnemanite, 50 Gebhardite; 55 Derbylite, 55 Graeserite, 55 Tomichite; 60 Hemloite, 65 Freedite, 70 Georgiadesite, 75 Ekatite**04.JC Arsenites, antimonites, bismuthites; without additional anions, with H2O: 05 Cafarsite, 10 Lazarenkoite, 15 Rouseite, 20 Vajdakite**04.JD Arsenites, antimonites, bismuthites; with additional anions, with H2O: 05 Nealite, 05 Nealite-(H2O)*; 10 Seelite-1, 10 Seelite-2; 15 Tooeleite**04.JE Sulfites: 05 Gravegliaite, 10 Hannebachite, 15 Orschallite, 20 Scotlandite**04.JF Selenites without additional anions, without H2O: 05 Molybdomenite**04.JG Selenites with additional anions, without H2O: Prewittite; 05 Parageorgbokiite, 05 Georgbokiite; 10 Chloromenite, 15 Sofiite, 20 Ilinskite, 25 Francisite, 30 Derriksite, 35 Burnsite, 40 Allochalcoselite**04.JH Selenites without additional anions, with H2O: 05 Chalcomenite; 10 Ahlfeldite, 10 Clinochalcomenite, 10 Cobaltomenite; 15 Mandarinoite, 20 Orlandiite, 25 Larisaite**04.JJ Selenites with additional anions, with H2O: 05 Marthozite, 10 Guilleminite, 15 Piretite, 20 Demesmaekerite, 25 Haynesite**04.JK Tellurites without additional anions, without H2O: 05 Walfordite, 05 Winstanleyite, 10 Spiroffite, 10 Zincospiroffite, 15 Balyakinite, 20 Rajite, 25 Carlfriesite, 30 Denningite, 35 Chekhovichite, 40 Smirnite, 45 Choloalite, 50 Fairbankite, 55 Plumbotellurite, 60 Magnolite, 65 Moctezumite, 70 Schmitterite, 75 Cliffordite**04.JL Tellurites with additional anions, without H2O: 05 Rodalquilarite, 10 Mackayite, 15 Mroseite, 20 Pingguite, 25 Tlapallite, 30 Girdite**04.JM Tellurites without additional anions, with H2O: 05 Keystoneite, 05 Kinichilite, 05 Zemannite, 10 Emmonsite, 15 Graemite, 20 Teineite**04.JN Tellurites with additional anions, with H2O: 05 Sonoraite, 10 Poughite; 15 Cesbronite, 15 Cesbronite-x; 20 Eztlite, 25 Oboyerite, 30 Juabite* 04.K Iodates** 04.KA Iodates without additional anions, without H2O: 05 Lautarite** 04.KB Iodates with additional anions, without H2O: 05 Salesite, 10 Schwartzembergite, 15 Seeligerite** 04.KC Iodates without additional anions, with H2O: 05 Bellingerite, 10 Bruggenite** 04.KD Iodates with additional anions, with H2O: 05 Dietzeite, 10 George-ericksenite*04.X Unclassified Strunz Oxides (Arsenites, antimonites, bismuthites, sulfites, selenites, tellurites, iodates) **04.XX Unknown: 00 Methane hydrate-I, 00 Methane hydrate-II, 00 Methane hydrate-H
