Strengite

Strengite
Strengite is a relatively rare iron phosphate mineral with the formula: FePO4 · 2H2O.[4] The mineral is named after the German mineralogist Johann August Streng (1830–1897).[5] Lavender, pink or purple in hue, it is similar to variscite[6] and is partially soluble, particularly in conditions where there is a low pH and low oxidation-reduction potential.[4]   Wikipedia  

 You may remember my pictures of Variscite on Nov. 26, 2016.
