A new mineral species, holubite, ideally Ag3Pb6(Sb8Bi3)Σ11S24, has been found at Kutná Hora ore district, Czech Republic. The mineral is associated with other lillianite homologues (gustavite, terrywallaceite, vikingite, treasurite) most frequently as grains aggregates and replacement rims of earlier Ag-Pb-Bi minerals, growing together in aggregates up to 200 x 50 μm. In this work the mineral's structure and its properties were studied and the results are presented.
