Abstract:
Dervillite, Ag2AsS2, has been found in a sample from the Lengenbach quarry in the Binn Valley, Valais, Switzerland. It occurs as very rare crystals up to 200 mm across on jordanite. Dervillite is opaque with a metallic lustre and shows a dark brown streak. The structure is monoclinic, space group Pc, with a = 9.6155(7), b = 12.9331(8), c = 6.8616(5) A˚, beta = 99.352(8)º, V = 842.0(1) A˚ 3 and Z = 8. In the crystal structure [R1 = 0.060 for 2370 reflections with I > 2s(I)], silver adopts various coordinations extending from quasi linear to quasi tetrahedral whereas arsenic forms very peculiar crystal-chemical environments, such as As(S2As) and As(S2AsAg). Such metalloid–metalloid or metal–metalloid bonds account for the apparent charge imbalance observed in the chemical formula.

Un bell'esempio di soluzione di strutture irrisolte che comporta automaticamente la variazione di status da Q a Rd.
