Another well-known western locality is the Mercur mine, Tooele County, Utah, where near-surface, low-temperature hydrothermal veins have produced good realgar and orpiment specimens in the past.
The mine closed about four years ago, but during the late 1980's its chief geologist collected from it what are surely some of the world's best specimens of lorandite-the extremely rare thallium arsenic sulfide known otherwise in significant crystals (to about 5 mm) only from Allchar, Macedonia.
Dissolving away the enclosing realgar reveals isolated, blocky to prismatic lorandite crystals on matrix, making for colorful, unusual-looking specimens, about 30 of them in all.

 Thallium (Tl) - Chemical properties, Health and Environmental effects
The element is widely dispersed, mainly in potassium minerals such as sylvite and pollucite.
Thallium minerals are rare, but a few are known, such as crookesirte and lorandite.
World production of thallium compound is around 30 tonnes per year.

Other Locations: Material identical to fangite was identified from the Crven Dol deposit in Alshar, formerly Yugoslavian Republic of Macedonia.
The material from this location was found on lorandite, orpiment and realgar.
Associated Minerals: Realgar, orpiment, lorandite, and pyrite were all abundant in the area and with the Gillulyite.

ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION Thallium is a metal that is not particularly rare in the earth's crust.
It commonly occurs in potash minerals and in a number of other minerals such as crookesite, lorandite, hutchinsonite, vrbaite and avicennite.
The pure metal is grayish-white and soft; compounds of thallium vary in odor.
