About Langite
Viktor von Lang (1838 β 1921)
Formula:
Cu4(SO4)(OH)6 Β· 2H2O
Colour:
Blue, greenish-blue
Lustre:
Vitreous, Silky
Hardness:
2½ - 3
Specific Gravity:
3.48 - 3.5
Crystal System:
Monoclinic
Name:
Named by Nevil Story-Maskelyne in 1864 in honor of Victor von Lang (2 March 1838, Vienna, Austrian Empire - 3 July 1921, Vienna, Austria), physicist and crystallographer, Professor of Physics, University of Vienna, Vienna, Austria. At the time of the mineral's discovery von Lang was employed at the British Museum (1862-1864). He became a pioneer of crystal physics.
Co-Type Localities:
Dimorph of:
A secondary copper mineral formed from the oxidation of copper sulphides.
Often forms pseudohexagonal twins. Some habits are easily confused with posnjakite and wroewolfeite.
May be altered to brochantite.

Interference Colours:
The colours simulate birefringence patterns seen in thin section under crossed polars. They do not take into account mineral colouration or opacity.
Michel-Levy Bar The default colours simulate the birefringence range for a 30 Β΅m thin-section thickness. Adjust the slider to simulate a different thickness.
Grain Simulation You can rotate the grain simulation to show how this range might look as you rotated a sample under crossed polars.
