(Bi,Sb)
Lustre:
Metallic
An antimony-bearing variety of native bismuth.
A phase with the formula BiSb was described from Jáchymov by Ondruš et al. (2003) as "7 μm rounded grain surrounded by stibarsen and an As(Sb,Bi) alloy (see arsenic and stibarsen analyses) in a small cavity of older arsenic."
It is unknown if the cations are ordered (such as in stibarsen, AsSb).
