| ⓘ Anorthite Formula: Ca(Al2Si2O8) |
| ⓘ Corundum Formula: Al2O3 |
| ⓘ Hibonite (TL) Formula: CaAl12O19 Type Locality: Description: per correspondence with Knut Edvard: The TL produced just a few specimens in the year of discovery (also an eluvial locality ). When lacking exact locality data the Madagascar hibonite specimens are often erroneously labeled and sold as coming from Esiva, often being the only locality referred to in textbooks. |

| ⓘ Spinel Formula: MgAl2O4 Localities: |
| ⓘ Thorianite Formula: ThO2 Localities: Habit: cubes Description: Unusually large crystals (Up to several centimeters!). |
