Abstract/NotesIn 1865 A. Breithaupt described a new mineral from Herrengrund, Hungary, to which he gave the name of fauserite. It formed very pale pink crystalline aggregates and prismatic crystals, with prism angle near 88°42′ (over a), apparently orthorhombic, and cleavage b(010). Two other prisms with angles (over a) 54°39′ and 107° 50′ were observed, and a pyramid p, giving mp= 52° ; these would correspond to forms (210), (340), and (111), and the angles are near those of epsomite. An analysis by Mollnár gave the figures shown under I below—a magnesium and manganese sulphate hexahydrate, with the molecular ratio MgSO4(Mn,Mg)SO4 = 31.62 %. There is no evidence that the analysed material (stated to be crystalline) was homogeneous.
