In the "New Mineral Names", by Ercit et al. 2007, in Am. Min. vol. 92 (page 1539) there is an abstract of Rastsvetaeva et al. (2006) article, where they describe an "apparently new member of the eudialyte group" and call it "eudialyte 3248",

The formula is:

Na₂₉Ca₁₂Zr₆[Si[sub]48[/sub]O₁₃₂(O,OH)₁₂]{[Na]₄[Si]₂}{[Mn]₃[Mn,Nb,Ti]₂}(OH,H₂O,Cl)₁₀

The mineral comes from the Lovozero massif.

It's on the Valid Unnamed list, but probably not added to Mindat yet.
