An antimonate mineral is a mineral that is an antimonate.

More helpfully, this is a mineral that has Sb and O forming an anion, with some other thing for a cation.

Antimonate minerals are often described as 'phosphate class' or 'phosphate group', since they are chemically similar to phosphate minerals.
