PhotosArsenatian Vanadinite - Nova Scotia, Canada

If better locality info cannot be provided, I find it a stretch to include a photo of an otherwise unreported mineral. Is there a way to request further info or retract the images?

I checked the ref for Arsenatian Vanadinite and it is not on pg 895 of Vol 2 Dana 7 as posted here. I have never heard of Arsenatian any thing, but then I forget the recent IMA nomenclature changes. Arsenian Vanadinite or Endlichite are what I'm used to. These photos look more like mimetite than endlichite.

When I buy this specimen the label indicate that the sample came from of the Nova Scotia, but I think that comes from nevada in the USA , however I can't prove that.
good day.

Given that the locality information is uncertain, I think the safest course of action would be to keep the photos in your personal gallery only.

The pictures you posted look very much like the Vanadinite and Descloizite found at the AO Prospect, (near) Barstow, San Bernardino Co., California, USA. See photos here: AO Prospect Pictures
I've collected this locality and was struck with the apparent similarity of the specimens in your photos to the material I found there.

This ''allanite'' come from gneiss quarry, but the specimen was find in calcite vein and was probably create by hydrothermal as the calcite matrix...
What do you think that it could be?
Where we can find allanite, what is its geological context. Thank you very much.
