  We present a new Kondo-lattice system, YbNi4P2, which is a clean
heavy-fermion metal with a severely reduced ferromagnetic ordering temperature
at T_C=0.17K, evidenced by distinct anomalies in susceptibility, specific-heat,
and resistivity measurements. The ferromagnetic nature of the transition, with
only a small ordered moment of ~0.05mu_B, is established by a diverging
susceptibility at T_C with huge absolute values in the ferromagnetically
ordered state, severely reduced by small magnetic fields. Furthermore, YbNi4P2
is a stoichiometric system with a quasi-one-dimensional crystal and electronic
structure and strong correlation effects which dominate the low temperature
properties. This is reflected by a stronger-than-logarithmically diverging
Sommerfeld coefficient and a linear-in-T resistivity above T_C which cannot be
explained by any current theoretical predictions. These exciting
characteristics are unique among all correlated electron systems and make this
an interesting material for further in-depth investigations.
