| β Prehnite ? Formula: Ca2Al2Si3O10(OH)2 Localities: Description: Mentioned by Gilpin (1881) for this area without any further information. Gilpin was a collection of earlier reports but the only earlier report at all related seems to be How (1863) describing material from Morden that looked like prehnite but the chemistry was wrong. No other reports of this mineral (except relisting of this early report). Without a proper description or analytic work, it is doubtful. |
| β 'Psilomelane' Description: Marsh lists psilomelane from the shore between Blomidon and Cape Split. It is unclear exactly where this mineral was found - none has been reported in recent years. |
