Brace (1823) wrote about the minerals found in the "greenstone" (basalt) range in Southbury and listed some minerals that were repeated by Robinson (1825) - the ones typically resistant to weathering (jasper, chalcedony, agate, quartz, amethyst, prehnite) or caused by it (common opal or hyalite). Shepard (1837) added the delicate laumontite. At that time there were no active quarries, so the minerals were found in various outcroppings at unspecified places around town but are indicative of those found in quarries in the last several decades.
Other minor finds, mostly in boulders, were mentioned by Shepard (1837), such as chalcopyrite, arsenopyrite, and ilmenite. Silliman (1822) and Robinson (1825) also mention 90-degree twins of staurolite from an unspecified locality "3 1/2 m. S. W. from Smith's inn" (with pyrite in the same area), placing it in the metamorphic bedrock near the confluence of the Pomperaug and Housatonic Rivers. Robinson (1825) also notes rare beryl "2 m. S. from Smith's inn", putting this also in the metamorphic rocks of the Bullet Hill Road area.
