Hi Kreigh,
Just out of curiosity, where did that info come from? Sure painite is
very rare, but there are some minerals that don't even exist any more;
the entire find was consumed during the description process (of course I
forget the names, but I knew them once...)
Such delightful trivia... that would be a cool compilation, a list in
order of the 100 (or whatever) rarest minerals and the mass of each
known extant... and something tells me you're going to send a link to
such a list as soon as you see this! LOL
Best,
Don
