Detailed Mineral List:

β“˜ 'Clinoptilolite Subgroup'
Formula: M3-6(Si30Al6)O72 · 20H2O
β“˜ Cristobalite
Formula: SiO2
β“˜ Dolomite
Formula: CaMg(CO3)2
β“˜ Hematite
Formula: Fe2O3
Habit: flat pseudo-hexagonal crystals up to 50-100um in size
Colour: shiny black
Description: The hematite is very rare at the locality. The analysis showed the ilmenite peak as well, although not too high. It should be characterized as hematite-ilmenite series, close to the iron endmember.
β“˜ Melanophlogite
Formula: 46SiO2 · 6(N2,CO2) · 2(CH4,N2)
β“˜ Pseudobrookite
Formula: Fe2TiO5
β“˜ Quartz
Formula: SiO2
β“˜ Quartz var. Chalcedony
Formula: SiO2
