A very rare mineral, a hydrated ferric phosphate, found in limited geological deposits.
Named through mineralogical nomenclature, likely after a person or place. The -ite suffix is standard for minerals, derived from Greek '-ites' (stone-related).
Grothite and grothine are so rare that scientists are still discovering deposits—these are the kinds of minerals that make geologists excited because they help us understand ancient geological processes!
