caption_attribution_description: English: Kolbeckite Locality: Schlarbaum quarry, Klause, Bad Gleichenberg, Styria, Austria (Locality at mindat.org) Size: 4.9 x 3.9 x 2.3 cm. Kolbeckite is a very rare scandium-rich phosphate mineral species (and there are not many such species). This is from a classic occurrence, and features relatively large spherical aggregates of microcrystals to just over 1mm in size, nicely isolated and so easily eye-visible. This is, for the material, extremely rich. Deutsch: Kolbeckit Fundort: Schlarbaum quarry, Klause, Bad Gleichenberg, Steiermark, Österreich (Fundort bei mindat.org) Größe: 4.9 x 3.9 x 2.3 cm.
context_page_description: Kolbeckite is a mineral with formula: ScPO₄·2H₂O. It was discovered originally at Schmiedeberg, Saxony, Germany in 1926 and is named after Friedrich L. W. Kolbeck, a German mineralogist. Kolbeckite is usually found as small clusters of crystals associated with other phosphate minerals.
