    Thus, the ideal formula one would expect for a spinel like carrollite is Cu 2+ Co 3+ 2 S 2− 4, but as in the case of copper sulfides in general the oxidation state of the copper atom is 1+, not 2+. An assignment of valences as Cu + Co 3+ 2 S 1.75− 4 is more appropriate; this was confirmed in a study of 2009. [ 11 ]
