Iranite (Persian: ایرانیت) is a triclinic lead copper chromate silicate mineral with formula Pb₁₀Cu(CrO₄)₆(SiO₄)₂(F,OH)₂. It was first described from an occurrence in Iran. It is the copper analogue of hemihedrite (Pb₁₀Zn(CrO₄)₆(SiO₄)₂(F,OH)₂).

It occurs as an oxidation product of hydrothermal lead-bearing veins. Associated minerals include dioptase, fornacite, wulfenite, mimetite, cerussite and diaboleite. It was first described in 1970 for an occurrence in the Sebarz Mine, northeast of Anarak, Iran.
