Geology & origin

Beaverite is a rare sulfate mineral belonging to the jarosite group and forms as a secondary mineral through the weathering of sulfide ores, especially in oxidized zones of ore deposits. It typically develops in arid environments and is often associated with other secondary minerals. The Horn Silver Mine in Beaver County, Utah, is a classic locality for Beaverite and is known for its wide variety of rare secondary minerals formed by complex weathering processes.
