Itelmenite is a rare sulfate mineral with the formula MnCr2S4. It was discovered in Social Circle meteorite found in Georgia, US.[1]

Relation to other minerals

Joegoldsteinite is defined as manganese-analogue of daubréelite (iron-rich mineral).[1] It is also analogous to kalininite (Zn-dominant) and cuprokalininite (Cu-dominant).[3][4][5]
