Notes on the mineral list:
- The abstract of the Khachaturyan (1957) mentions also sphalerite, chalc, pyrite, stannite and wittichenite, but it is unclear if they occur at the Tanzu or the Chibukla deposit or at both.
- The occurrence of crookesite is questioned by N.D. Sindeeva in the book "Mineralogy and types of deposits of selenium and tellurium": "In the Soviet literature, there is but one (Khachaturyan, 1958), an unfortunately entirely incorrect and illogical reference to the existence of crookesite in the ores of the Chibukhlinsk pyrite deposit in the Caucasus."
