Abstract
Rambergite, the recently described Mn analogue of wurtzite, was found at Ro nneburg, Thuringia, Germany. The mineral forms hexagonal crystals of up to 0.1 mm length. The cell parameters are a = 3.988(2) Angstrom, and c = 6.441 (4) Angstrom. Rambergite was formed by the reaction of H2S with Mn2+ ions.
