Pb4(CO3)2(SO4)(OH)2
Colour:
Colourless to greenish or yellowish
Lustre:
Adamantine
Hardness:
2½ - 3
Specific Gravity:
6.52 (Calculated)
Crystal System:
Trigonal
Name:
Named after the type locality, the Susanna Mine, Leadhills, Scotland.
Type Locality:
ⓘSusanna Mine (Glennery Scar vein; Susanna vein [Scar vein]; Portobello vein; Humby vein; Lead vein), Leadhills, South Lanarkshire, Scotland, UK
Polymorph of:
Leadhillite,Macphersonite
The trigonal dimorph ofleadhillite.

A mineral closely related toleadhillite andmacphersonite. Tabular forms of susannite are easily confused with leadhillite.

Heating leadhillite causes it to reversibly transform into susannite in the temperature range from 50 to 82°C (Bindi & Menchetti, 2005).
