Minerals described in 2015

Nuragheite is a rare natural thorium molybdate, formula Th(MoO4)2·H2O, discovered in Su Seinargiu, Sarroch, Cagliari, Sardegna, Italy. This locality is also a place of discovery of the other thorium molybdate - ichnusaite, which is a trihydrate.

Antipinite (IMA symbol: Atp) is a rare alkali Copper oxalate mineral with the chemical formula . Its type locality is the Tarapacá Region in Chile.

Castellaroite is a rare arsenate mineral with formula Mn3(AsO4)2•4H2O. It is related to the phosphate mineral metaswitzerite. Castellaroite is monoclinic, with space group P21/n. The other natural manganese arsenate hydrate is manganohörnesite, which is an octahydrate.

Aradite is a very rare mineral with formula BaCa6[(SiO4)(VO4)](VO4)2F. Aradite and its phosphorus-analogue, zadovite, were found in paralavas (rocks formed due to pyrometamorphism) of the Hatrurim Formation. Both aradite and zadovite have structures similar to that of nabimusaite. Structure of all three minerals is related to that of hatrurite.
