The name is a reference to mimetite's resemblance to the mineral pyromorphite. Typically Lahnsteinite is found near goethite, pyromorphite, quartz and native copper. Anglesite, Cerussite, Pyromorphite, Mimetite and Wulfenite are other lead ores. It has also been used as an alternate name for pyromorphite. Scotlandite is found in association with pyromorphite, anglesite, lanarkite, leadhillite, susannite, and barite. Original surface oxidized ore contained cerussite, anglesite and pyromorphite. He is also credited with coining the names pyromorphite (1813) and rhodochrosite (1813). Some associated minerals include&colon; calcite, galena, pyromorphite, smithsonite, vanadinite, and wulfenite. Pyromorphite and baryte are common associated minerals, and plumbogummite may be pseudomorphic after them.
