Lengenbach

See https://fglb.clubdesk.ch/clubdesk/www

These images are from a group of specimens displaying 18 different species. Identification of the sulphosalts is from the labels of T.K. Devon, but I'm not sure how much confidence to place in them and certainly have no confidence to visually identify them myself.
Realgar, 3 mm crystal on dolomite with baryte, Lengenbach Lengenbachite with sphalerite and quadratite or jordanite on dolomite, Lengenbach, FOV 5 mm Sartorite (type locality) crystal, 5 mm long on dolomite with muscovite, Lengenbach Baumhauerite (type locality) crystals with baryte and dolomite, Lengenbach
Sartorite (according to label), FOV 3 mm Jordanite (type locality), Lengenbach, FOV 3 mm Dravite crystal, Lengenbach, FOV 3 mm Labelled sartorite (type locality) crystals, but likely to be a different sulphosalt, FOV 5 mm
