Enneasartorite 
Summary
Enneasartorite is a very rare mineral[3] with formula Tl6Pb32As70S140. It belongs to sartorite homologous series.[2] It is related to other recently approved minerals of the sartorite series: hendekasartorite and heptasartorite.[4][5] All come from Lengenbach quarry in Switzerland, which is famous for thallium sulfosalts.[6] Enneasartorite is chemically similar to edenharterite and hutchinsonite.[7][8]
