23 valid minerals.

Detailed Mineral List:

β“˜ Anatase
Formula: TiO2
β“˜ 'Apatite'
Formula: Ca5(PO4)3(Cl/F/OH)
β“˜ Arsenopyrite
Formula: FeAsS
Habit: mostly massive (powdery) with some cubes
Colour: dull grey
Description: Heated in a closed tube this gives copious sulphur fumes, sufficient to condense and form liquid drops. The arsenic given off is consequently black (tested Oct 2004)
β“˜ Brochantite
Formula: Cu4(SO4)(OH)6
β“˜ Brookite
Formula: TiO2
β“˜ Cassiterite
Formula: SnO2
β“˜ Cerussite
Formula: PbCO3
β“˜ Chalcopyrite
Formula: CuFeS2
β“˜ Childrenite ?
Formula: Fe2+Al(PO4)(OH)2 · H2O
Description: Specimens in the collection of the British Museum that are labelled as coming from Virtuous Lady Mine have been shown to be really from George and Charlotte Mine. Tiny childrenite crystals were identified however on a "Lady's Slipper" pseudomorph that probably came from Virtuous Lady Mine. While the occurrence of childrenite at this locality is likely, it still has to be confirmed (Braithwaite and Cooper, 1982).
β“˜ 'Chlorite Group'
β“˜ Covellite
Formula: CuS
β“˜ Cyanotrichite ?
Formula: Cu4Al2(SO4)(OH)12 · 2H2O
β“˜ Dolomite
Formula: CaMg(CO3)2
Habit: Crusts of epitaxial-stacked and twinned equidimensional rhombohedra. Occasional modification by negative rhombohedron.
Colour: White - usually with yellow, iridescent coating
Description: The mineral is found lining voids in vuggy dump material. Crystals to ~2mm, epitaxial stacks of rhombohedra, some twinning allowing the crystal masses to conform with the matrix surface. Associated with: Lollingite, Arsenopyrite, Pyrite, Quartz, Siderite. Matrix: Quartz in brecciated killas (slate). A.Rowan Analytical Ref: A20090101.1
β“˜ Fluorapatite
Formula: Ca5(PO4)3F
β“˜ Fluorapatite var. Carbonate-rich Fluorapatite
Formula: Ca5(PO4,CO3)3(F,O)
β“˜ Fluorite
Formula: CaF2
β“˜ Galena
Formula: PbS
β“˜ Goethite
Formula: Ξ±-Fe3+O(OH)
β“˜ Gypsum
Formula: CaSO4 · 2H2O
Habit: Acicular and bladed tabular crystals to ~8mm Some stepped growth on acicular crystals.
Colour: Colourless, transparent.
Description: The mineral is found in a single void in vuggy dump material. Crystals to ~8mm in divergent clusters on dolomite rhombohedra. Stepped growth of acicular crystals typical of gypsum (var. Selenite) Associated with: Dolomite, LΓΆllingite, Arsenopyrite, Pyrite, Quartz, Siderite. Matrix: Quartz in brecciated killas (slate). A.Rowan Analytical Ref: A20090101.2
β“˜ LΓΆllingite
Formula: FeAs2
β“˜ Malachite
Formula: Cu2(CO3)(OH)2
β“˜ 'Monazite'
Formula: REE(PO4)
β“˜ Pyrite
Formula: FeS2
β“˜ Quartz
Formula: SiO2
β“˜ Quartz var. Agate
β“˜ Quartz var. Capped Quartz
β“˜ Quartz var. Chalcedony
Formula: SiO2
β“˜ Scorodite
Formula: Fe3+AsO4 · 2H2O
β“˜ Siderite
Formula: FeCO3
β“˜ Sphalerite
Formula: ZnS
