Purpurite
Purpurite is a mineral, basically manganese phosphate, MnPO although with varying amounts of iron depending upon the source of the mineral. It is a striking pink purple color as might be expected of a manganese-containing mineral.
Purpurite forms a series with the iron bearing endmember heterosite, FePO.
