Improving Mindat.orgCosta Sopramare = Sopramare Coast ?

21st Oct 2005 17:08 UTCPeter Haas

Just to keep one of our recent discussions alive

Hi Peter,

I think that in this case Sopramare Coast should be incorrect.

The locality is not on the coast, also if it is not so far from the sea.

Ciao. Marco

Concerning Alp (instead of Alpe) I agree with you, Peter.

Buon week-end.

I can add a brief abstract of the article on Costa Sopramare mineral find:



Reference:

Bracco, R., Castellaro, F., Kolitsch, U., 2005. Levyna-Ca e altre zeoliti da Costa Sopramare, Levanto (La Spezia, Liguria). Micro (notizie mineralogiche), 2/2005, 55-64.



Abstract:

"The important find of a new species for the mineralogy of Liguria has given the opportunity of revisiting

Costa Sopramare (Cantarana Valley), Levanto, La Spezia, Liguria, Italy, an old classical locality, offering not

only microminerals but also aesthetic samples of well crystallised zeolites. Levyne-Ca was identified for the

first time in Liguria in millimetric crystals with perfect shape. The levyne-Ca find also gave us the opportunity

of reviewing some other zeolitic species. Datolite and thomsonite-Ca represent the first occurrence for the

locality."
