Virgilluethite
Virgilluethite is a rare inorganic mineral with the chemical formula molybdenum trioxide hydrate, MoO3·H2O. It crystallizes in the monoclinic crystal system and is classified as an oxide mineral. The mineral typically exhibits a vitreous luster and is usually colorless or pale yellow in appearance. It has a relatively low hardness and a low to moderate density. Virgilluethite is notable for its hydrous composition, which distinguishes it from other molybdenum oxides. As a hydrated molybdenum oxide, it belongs to the oxide mineral class and is of interest to mineralogists due to its unique chemical structure and formation conditions.
