Named in honor of A. Hutchinson (1866-1937), mineralogist at the University of Cambridge (England). It’s ortorombic and scarlet-red. The crystals can be rich in faces or in the form of radial aggregates of tabular crystals. It is the Lengenbach sulfosalt with a highest arsenic content and therefore it’s more often associated with realgar
