hierarchical_section_title: Aurostibite
caption_attribution_description: English: Aurostibite is a rare mineral of simple chemistry, since it is a gold antimonide, AuSb2. It occurs in this specimen as silvery crystal aggregates scattered on the specimen. From: Krásná Hora Nad Vltavou, Bohemia, Czech Republic.
context_page_description: Aurostibite is an isometric gold antimonide mineral which is a member of the pyrite group. Aurostibite was discovered in 1952 and can be found in hydrothermal gold-quartz veins, in sulfur-deficient environments that contain other antimony minerals. The mineral can be found in Yellowknife in the Northwest Territories of Canada, and the Timiskaming District in Ontario, Canada. Antimonides are rare and are normally placed in the sulfide class by mineralogists.
