This must be a most obscure word. I can't imagine this combination in a single syllable. Thus, I've been pondering two-syllable combinations since last night. I'm giving up.
Kudos, for presenting one of the toughest 3-Letter challenges yet.

The word is arzrunite. According to the McGraw-Hill Dictionary of Geology
and Mineralogy, arzrunite is a bluish-green mineral consisting of copper
sulfate with copper chloride and lead. It was named after Andreas Arzruni,
a 19th century geologist.
