Description: Bill Wise talk at 2007 NCMA meeting. The thometzekite that was identified in the "Mineralogical Record" article by Wise and Kokinos has now been identified as gartrellite. This was discussed in a talk by Bill Wise at the June 2007 NCMA meeting. There may still be thometzekite at the locality, but the specimen that was featured in the article is gartrellite.
