1. IntroductionZheshengite (IMA2022-011) is a new mineral approved by the International Mineralogical Association’s Commission on New Minerals, Nomenclature and Classification (IMA-CNMNC) and designated with the symbol “Zh”. It belongs to the dongchuanite group, which is also approved by IMA-CNMNC [1]. A different root name was selected for zheshengite because the ideal formula of dongchuanite contains only (PO4)3− anions, whereas zheshengite’s formula includes both (PO4)3− and (AsO4)3− anions.
