It was first described in 1859 for an occurrence in Plateros, Zacatecas, Mexico where it occurred in a silver deposit as an oxidation product of primary ore minerals.^[1] It occurs in arid environments along with native silver, iodargyrite and smithsonite along with iron and manganese oxide minerals.^[3]
