The new mineral argentopolybasite, ideally Ag16Sb2S11, was found at the Kremnica Au-Ag epithermal deposit, Žiar nad Hronom Co., Banská Bystrica Region, Slovakia, Šibeničný vrch near Nová Baňa, Žarnovica Co., Banská Bystrica Region, Slovakia and the Arykevaam epithermal Au-Ag deposit, Anadyr' District, Chukotka Autonomous Okrug, Russian Federation. At the Kremnica deposit argentopolybasite was found as discrete, well-developed (pseudo)hexagonal tabular crystals up to 4 mm in size or as complex crystalline aggregates and groups up to 5 mm in size in cavities of quartz. It is associated w ith pyrargyrite, polybasite, stephanite, miargyrite, ozhdestvenskayaite-(Zn), argentotetrahedrite-(Zn), naumannite, gold and pyrite. In this work the mineral's structure and its properties were studied and the results are presented.
