Formula:
Ni3As7
Co-described with UM1990-27-O:Pt, UM1990-47-Sb:CuNi, and UM1990-49-Sb:Ni. Not found in the IMA's Valid Unnamed Minerals list.
Found as two grains, the larger is 10 x 23 microns in size; may coexist with (1) platinian copper, a Ni sulfide, and a Pt-Fe alloy, in magnetite, or (2) a Ni antimonide, platinian copper, and geversite, in magnetite-chromite.
