Optically, the mineral is biaxial positive with a 2V measured at 60 degrees and all indices of refraction exceeding 1.80; r < v, distinct; and the fibers are length slow with Z approximately equal to c.
Associated minerals on the holotype specimen are quartz, goethite, dickite, and cinnabar; other species reported from the locality include barite, calcite, calomel, eglestonite, fluorapatite, galena, livingstonite, mercury, metacinnabar, montroydite, perhamite, pyrite, siderite, stibiconite, stibnite, and terlinguaite.
Artsmithite is a secondary phase, probably produced during the weathering and chemical breakdown of cinnabar and fluorapatite (Roberts et al.

 The Story of Mercury - The Many Faces of Mercury
Miners find mercury in ores such as this sample of mercury sulfide, also known as cinnabar.
Mercury is also found in the ores calomel, livingstonite, and corderoite.
Mercury’s density is 13.5 times that of water and its great cohesiveness property gives mercury droplets a unique shape.

Mercury, also known as quicksilver, is the only metal which is liquid at room temperature.
Although it can be found in its native state, it is more commonly found in such ores as calomel, livingstonite, corderite and its sulfide cinnabar.
Extraction is most simply carried out by distillation as mercury compounds decompose at moderate temperatures and voltilize.

 antimony-new
The total emissions of antimony compounds from stationary sources in California are estimated to be at least 90 pounds per year, based on data reported under the Air Toxics "Hot Spots" Program (AB 2588) (ARB, 1997b).
Antimony occurs in ores such as stibnite, kermasite, tetrahedrite, livingstonite, and jamisonite.
Antimony trioxide is found in ores such as senarmontite, valentinite, exitelite, and weisspiessglanz (Merck, 1989).

 INORGANIC ORIGIN IN UPPER MANTLE SEEN LIKELY FOR SOLID HYDROCARBON IN SYRIA PLATEAU BASALT
Both metals also exhibit a strong affinity with the concerned hydrocarbon; and both originated from and were picked up by the vertically ascending hydrocarbon through Upper Tertiary fractured and/or faulted thick alkaline basaltic lavas in rifted southern Syria.2
Mercury and antimony are commonly associated with volcanic activity around the world, and in minerals such as cinnabar, livingstonite, corderoite, calomel, and others.
Tin, some zinc, and probably other elements, not listed in Table 1, may have also originated from those lavas.1 Sulfur was chemically detected, and its presence was confirmed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (Table 2).

 antimony
It is found mainly as sulfides and oxides, sometimes as native metal.
Other common ores containing antimony are cervantite, valentinite, livingstonite, jamisonite, and kermesite.
Concentrations of antimony range from 0.5-5 ppm in coal and 30-107 ppm in petroleum.
