Duhanit

Duhanit is a fictional mineral used in speculative geology and science fiction narratives. It is not recognized by real-world mineral databases, and there is no verified specimen or chemical analysis.

In fictional depictions, duhanit is described as dense and metallic, with a dark gray to black appearance and a lustrous surface. The crystal system and composition vary by author, and there is no standard chemical formula associated with the mineral.

Origins and uses in fiction often place duhanit in extreme environments such as deep crustal rocks or meteorites. It is typically portrayed as rare and valuable, and is sometimes depicted as a material for advanced alloys or as a power source in speculative technologies. Because it is fictional, readers should consult the specific works in which it appears to understand the properties ascribed to it in those narratives.
