NOTES on the mineral list:
- The partly magnetic, large pseudo-hexagonal and pseudo-octahedral epidote crytals from "Quetta" or "Quetta district" are in fact from Maldin Koh. They are described in: http://www.mindat.org/article.php/1770/Epidote+from+the+Zard+Mountains%2C+Kharan%2C+Balochistan%2C+Pakistan
- Brookites attributed to "Quetta" are probably from Kharan District.
