1958Hawley & Berry in Canad. Mineralogist VI. 200 Two palladium bismuthides from nickeliferous ores of the Frood Mine, Sudbury, Ontario, detected and described by C. E. Michener some years ago, are re-described and named michenerite and froodite. 1963Mineral. Abstr. XVI. 283/1 Michenerite associated with the moncheite and kotulskite is shown to have a composition approximating to Pd0·75Pt0·25BiTe rather than PdBi2. 1972Ibid. XXIII. 316/1 Moncheite and michenerite occur as disseminations between sulphides and rock-forming silicates and as idiomorphic grains. |
