Spuma lupi is a synonym for wolframite,
Per Agricola, it is derived from "volf," "wolf," and "rahm," "ram," for "froth", "cream," "soot" (Latin = Lupi spuma), perhaps in allusion to an objectionable scum or substance formed during the smelting of tin ores containing tungsten; possibly also derived from "lupus" and "wolf", which were alchemists' terms for antimony, for which it may have been mistaken as an ore.
The literal English translation of 'spuma lupi' is Wolves' foam. In the word-by-word translation, the noun 'spuma' means 'foam'. The noun 'lupi' means 'wolves'.
