Wikipedia summary
![Abhurite is a mineral of tin, oxygen, hydrogen, and chlorine with the formula Sn_21O_6(OH)_14Cl_16 or Sn_3O(OH)_2Cl_2. It is named after its type locality, a shipwreck with tin ingots at Sharm Abhur, a cove near Jeddah in the Red Sea. Abhurite forms alongside other tin minerals like romarchite and cassiterite.](../image_source/f4fbd71139f1e4c7c2cf234f57f0349b.png)
