Nezhilovite

Nezhilovite is a magnetoplumbite mineral discovered in 1996 by Bermanec et al., who gave it the ideal elemental formula PbZn<sub>2</sub>(Mn<sup>4+</sup>, Ti<sup>4+</sup>)<sub>2</sub>Fe<sub>8</sub>O<sub>19</sub>. It forms black magnetic crystals up to 1mm with a tabular, hexagonal outline. The mineral is optically anisotropic, bireflectant and is paramagnetic. The minerals occurs in a matrix of "pink dolomitic marble from a Precambrian metamorphic complex of gneisses, schists and marbles in the Nezhilovo area" of the Pelagonian massif.
