Summary

Electron microprobe analyses and X-ray data are given for iron-rich carrollites, cobaltian violarites, and other members of the linnaeite group. The iron-rich carrollites (8.5 wt% Fe) occur as an unmixed phase in a copper linnaeite host from the Zambian Copperbelt. Primary and secondary cobaltian violarites are reported from Rhodesia and Australia respectively with the latter recording up to 19.2 wt% Co. A diagrammatic review is given of the extremes of composition reported within the group together with the more reliable cell sizes.
