Cabrerite is an arsenate mineral bearing magnesium and nickel. It is a member of the hörnesite-annabergite series in the vivianite group.
The name Cabrerite has been in use for any annabergite with notable incorporation of magnesium, typically nickel remaining the dominant ion.[3] It was specified to refer to specimens with a Ni:Mg ratio of 1:2 in 2024.[2]
