Mercury (Hg) is officially classed as a mineral species for historical reasons, and also because it is distinctive in its chemical and physical properties. It crystallizes at -40 C°. It is usually found as small isolated drops associated with cinnabar, but it can also be found as large liquid masses in rock cavities. Mercury is often found, along with cinnabar (mtshal) and other Hg minerals, as a precipitate from hot springs and in volcanic regions (mindat.org).
