Alphabetical List Tree DiagramDetailed Mineral List:
| ⓘ Allophane Formula: (Al2O3)(SiO2)1.3-2 · 2.5-3H2O |
| ⓘ Alumohydrocalcite Formula: CaAl2(CO3)2(OH)4 · 4H2O Habit: Acicular / hair-like xx Colour: white, cream, colourless Fluorescence: n.d. Description: Occurs as small areas (<2mm) of intergrown hairlike crystals giving a felted appearance. Originally thought to be dundasite, with which it occurs, but dundasite crystals are much thicker and more distinct. |
| ⓘ Analcime Formula: Na(AlSi2O6) · H2O Localities: |
| ⓘ Anatase Formula: TiO2 |
| ⓘ Ankerite Formula: Ca(Fe2+,Mg)(CO3)2 |
| ⓘ 'Apatite' Formula: Ca5(PO4)3(Cl/F/OH) |
| ⓘ 'Apatite var. Collophane' |
| ⓘ 'Apophyllite Group' Formula: AB4[Si8O22]X · 8H2O Habit: massive; aggregates of larger (< 10mm x 10mm) tabular crystals Colour: white Fluorescence: none Description: A small number of specimens were recovered in the early 1970's, associated with datolite in the hydrothermal quartz veins at Merehead, not the manganese deposits. |
| ⓘ Aragonite Formula: CaCO3 Localities: |
| ⓘ Formula: Mn2+4Al4(AlMg)(AsO4)(SiO4)2(Si3O10)(OH)6 Locality: Torr Works Quarry, Cranmore, Mendip, Somerset, England, UK - erroneously reported Habit: aggregates of honey-yellow prismatic crystals in vein quartz. Colour: lemon to honey yellow, sometimes appearing mid-brown due to oxide coatings Fluorescence: n/a Description: Two specimens of Ardennite were found in 1977 by Chris Parkinson in blocks of loose vein quartz near the #1 and #2 veins. Although written up at the time by Bob Symes the paper was never published. Visually very similar to Salmchâteau material, the chemistry is quite different, being As-rich and V-poor.
Turner and Rumsey (2010) found that these specimens of ardennite are chemically almost identical to some material from Salmchâteau. The difference in chemistry originally considered diagnostic happened because the specimen (from S-C) with which the 'Merehead' material was originally compared was found on re-examination to really be ardennite-(V), a species not described at the time of the original comparison. They also found doubts about the provenance of the material, including a ten-year gap between the stated 1977 date of finding and submission of the material to the NHM. The specimens are quite unlike anything else found at Merehead (and in the Mendips in general). More investigation is needed, but unless this mineral is found again in situ, it's occurrence at Merehead must be regarded as highly doubtful. |
| ⓘ Atelestite Formula: Bi2(AsO4)O(OH) Colour: Colourless-White Description: EDS partly identified at the ROM, but might be Tetrarooseveltite. |
| ⓘ Azurite Formula: Cu3(CO3)2(OH)2 Localities: Reported from at least 9 localities in this region. |
| ⓘ Baryte Formula: BaSO4 Localities: Reported from at least 19 localities in this region. |
| ⓘ Barytocalcite Formula: BaCa(CO3)2 |
| ⓘ Bismutite Formula: (BiO)2CO3 Description: Bismutite from Kennisham Iron Mine is found as inconspicuous white to light yellow and yellow green masses to 2cms,and micro balls <1mm also as platy square, and tapering prismatic crystals <0.75mm. Bismutite commonly replaces a metallic grey Bismuth mineral. The matrix is a mixture of Goethite some Quartz and a very micaceous slate. Confirmed by XRD at the NHM, London 2012. |
| ⓘ Blixite ? Formula: Pb8O5(OH)2Cl4 Description: The presence of a "blixite-like mineral" found at Merehead Quarry in the Mendips (often labelled as blixite) was subsequently confirmed to be the new mineral, mereheadite. The presence of blixite in the Mendips must be considered doubtful.
Analysis of a large number of specimens (see Turner and Rumsey 2010) failed to find a single (genuine) specimen of blixite from anywhere in the Mendips, including Merehead. Most of the yellow material thought to be blixite is in fact paralaurionite. |

| ⓘ Coronadite Formula: Pb(Mn4+6Mn3+2)O16 |
| ⓘ Cotunnite Formula: PbCl2 Habit: massive Colour: in a mixture, but probably very pale blue or white Fluorescence: n/a Description: Cotunnite is a constituent of a small number of the light blue alteration haloes found around (darker blue) diaboleite crystals in mendipite. It does not appear in all haloes or alternatively is very sparsely dispersed as discrete 'grains' in a large amount of other material. |
| ⓘ Crednerite Formula: CuMnO2 Localities: Habit: Massive, bladed, platy in calcite Colour: Very dark green to black Fluorescence: none Description: Invariably embedded in calcite, very rarely as free standing crystals. Crednerite is usually covered by an oxidation coating of malachite. Has been recently (2006-06) found replaced by kentrolite.
'Crednerite' has recently been found to be a mixture of at least three, possibly four different phases (see Turner and Rumsey 2010). Two of these predominate in the Mendips. In addition, there are a number of alteration phases that are derived from 'crednerite'. These various phases need further investigation, and proper characterisation. |
| ⓘ Cryptomelane Formula: K(Mn4+7Mn3+)O16 Habit: massive, granular to fibrous Colour: brown Fluorescence: none Description: Cryptomelane is a constituent of the brownish coloured manganese oxides in the outer zones of some manganese pods at Merehead. |
| ⓘ Cuprite Formula: Cu2O Localities: Cannington Park Quarry, Cannington, Sedgemoor, Somerset, England, UK Stoke Hill Quarry, Stoke St Michael, Mendip, Somerset, England, UK Kennisham Hill Mine, Luxborough, Somerset West and Taunton, Somerset, England, UK Torr Works Quarry, Cranmore, Mendip, Somerset, England, UK Colemans Quarry, Nunney, Mendip, Somerset, England, UK ? (more information) |
| ⓘ Datolite Formula: CaB(SiO4)(OH) Habit: Massive, botryoidal, fibrous Colour: creamy white to white Fluorescence: None Description: A small number of specimens were recovered in the early 1970's. Datolite is associated with the hydrothermal quartz veins at Merehead, not the manganese deposits. |

| ⓘ Hausmannite Formula: Mn2+Mn3+2O4 Localities: |
| ⓘ Hedyphane Formula: Ca2Pb3(AsO4)3Cl Description: A small number of specimens comprised of pale yellow to clear hexagonal prisms were found to be hedyphane, rather than mimetite. |
| ⓘ Hematite Formula: Fe2O3 Localities: Reported from at least 24 localities in this region. |
| ⓘ Hydrocerussite Formula: Pb3(CO3)2(OH)2 Localities: Habit: pseudo-hexagonal xls and plates, often stacked into 'worms' Colour: pearly white, pale green Fluorescence: none Description: Hydrocerussite is associated with cerussite in the manganese pods; crystals of hydrocerussite coated with cerussite or calcite are not uncommon. Large crystal masses are often found just outside the manganese pod in the altered limestone wallrock, as pCO2 needs to be high for hydrocerussite to form.
'Hydrocerussite' has recently been found to be a mixture of at least three, possibly four different phases (see Turner and Rumsey 2010). Two of these predominate in the Mendips. These various phases need further investigation, and proper characterisation. References: Alabaster, C. J. (1977) An occurrence of brucite at Merehead Quarry, Cranmore, Somerset.

Locally present in some quantity, with exceptional xls up to 5mm in length. |
| ⓘ Langite Formula: Cu4(SO4)(OH)6 · 2H2O Localities: References: |
| ⓘ Laumontite Formula: CaAl2Si4O12 · 4H2O Localities: |
| ⓘ Laurionite Formula: PbCl(OH) Description: Occurs very sparingly, generally as clear to white grains in (white) mendipite. Laurionite may be more common than realised, as it is very unobtrusive in this environment. |
| ⓘ Lepidocrocite Formula: γ-Fe3+O(OH) |
| ⓘ 'Limonite' Localities: Reported from at least 10 localities in this region. |
| ⓘ Macedonite ? Formula: PbTiO3 Description: A small number of tiny (<4 micron) balls of a brown Pb-Ti-O phase have been found in a specimen with a mixed Mn-Fe oxide matrix from Merehead. These are almost certainly macedonite, but the small size of the material precludes definitive characterisation.
A similar phase on the specimen also contains some Fe, and is likely to be related in some way. |
| ⓘ Magnetite Formula: Fe2+Fe3+2O4 |
| ⓘ Malachite Formula: Cu2(CO3)(OH)2 Localities: Reported from at least 14 localities in this region. |
| ⓘ 'Manganese Oxides' |
| ⓘ Manganite Formula: Mn3+O(OH) Localities: |
| ⓘ Marcasite Formula: FeS2 |
| ⓘ Mattheddleite ? Formula: Pb5(SiO4)1.5(SO4)1.5(Cl,OH) Description: A Pb-Si-S phase occurs very rarely at Merehead, forming minute clear hexagonal prisms. This is most likely to be mattheddleite, but there is currently insufficient material for a definitive characterisation. |
| ⓘ Melanotekite Formula: Pb2Fe3+2(Si2O7)O2 Localities: |
| ⓘ Mendipite (TL) Formula: Pb3Cl2O2 Localities: Type Locality: Mendip Hills, Somerset, England, UK References: |
| ✪ Mereheadite (TL) Formula: Pb47Cl25(OH)13O24(CO3)(BO3)2 Type Locality: Habit: massive; occasionally crude xls but these are very, very rare Colour: yellow orange to reddish brown Fluorescence: occasionally yellow-green (SW) but this may be due to impurities Description: Originally from manganese-rich pods along 'Vein 2' and from loose blocks believed to have been derived from 'Vein 1'. Recently found in manganese pods on benches F and G in 2005 and 2006 respectively. |
| ⓘ Mimetite Formula: Pb5(AsO4)3Cl Localities: |
| ⓘ Molybdophyllite ? Formula: Pb8Mg9[Si10O28(OH)8O2(CO3)3] · H2O Description: A Pb-Mg-Si-O phase occurs at Merehead as small clear grains, and this is most likely to be molybdophyllite. It has been noted by other investigators, but has never been found in enough quantity for a definitive characterisation. |
| ⓘ Nasonite Formula: Pb6Ca4(Si2O7)3Cl2 Habit: massive Colour: royal blue Fluorescence: n/a Description: Small royal blue patches (<2mm) in datolite/apophyllite matrix. Less than five specimens including probe mounts are known.
Existing references to the occurrence of ganomalite are incorrect; all the specimens are nasonite (they do not contain manganese). |
| ⓘ Natrojarosite Formula: NaFe3(SO4)2(OH)6 |
| ⓘ Palygorskite Formula: ◻Al2Mg2◻2Si8O20(OH)2(H2O)4 · 4H2O |

| ⓘ Plattnerite Formula: PbO2 Localities: |
| ✪ Plumbonacrite (TL) Formula: Pb5O(OH)2(CO3)3 Type Locality: Habit: Pale yellow, hexagonal bipyramidal crystals. Colour: pale yellow, white Description: Although not accepted by the IMA as a valid mineral species, crystals of 'plumbonacrite' to around 2mm, and aggregates of xx to around 5mm have been found at Merehead in association with rickturnerite and mereheadite. |

| ✪ Symesite (TL) Formula: Pb10(SO4)O7Cl4 · H2O Type Locality: Habit: massive, platy Colour: white, brown, yellowish, pink Fluorescence: none Description: Originally found as pink platy material from #2 vein, recent finds (2005-6) have yielded specimens that are clear, white, grey, bluish, yellow and brown in colour.
Recent specimens are associated with mereheadite, to which it is related. |
| ⓘ 'Tetrahedrite Subgroup' Formula: Cu6(Cu4C2+2)Sb4S12S |
| ⓘ 'Tourmaline' Formula: AD3G6 (T6O18)(BO3)3X3Z |
| ⓘ Vanadinite Formula: Pb5(VO4)3Cl Habit: None Colour: dark orange-red Fluorescence: None Description: Some small, darker patches in orange mimetite collected in June 2006 have V > As (approx 7:5) and therefore technically are vanadinite. However, the bulk crystal composition is that of a marginally V-enriched mimetite, and no distinct vanadinite crystals have been found to date. |
| ⓘ Formula: BaCu3(VO4)2(OH)2 Locality: Torr Works Quarry, Cranmore, Mendip, Somerset, England, UK - erroneously reported Description: Despite reports, does not occur at Merehead. Specimens have been analysed and found to be weathered chrome yellow paint, presumably from blast hole marking. The material consists predominantly of PbCr04 and fillers uniformly ground to ~1 micron. Traces of Ag, Sn and Ni and a metallic phase composed of EPNS are most likely from the grinding rollers when the paint was prepared. |
| ⓘ 'Wad' Localities: Reported from at least 7 localities in this region. |
| ⓘ Witherite Formula: BaCO3 Localities: References: |
| ⓘ Wittichenite Formula: Cu3BiS3 Description: Occurs as light to dark metallic grey massive mineral in goethite-hematite gossan usually extensively altered to yellow bismutite. |
| ⓘ Wulfenite Formula: Pb(MoO4) Localities: Habit: Tabular blades in matrix to 2cm, free standing xls to 5mm Colour: honey brown Description: Most Merehead (and Mendip) wulfenite occurs as honey-yellow blades in a matrix of mixed carbonates (usually calcite and/or cerussite and/or aragonite). Blades are usually <5mm and most are smaller; smaller specimens tend to be more yellow in colour.
Larger blades have been known to occur on two occasions. Honey-yellow blades were found in June 2006, up to 25mm in size with one specimen reaching 75mm (but unfortunately, all had been caught by the blast). An old specimen in the NHM collection contains a single, red-brown blade approximately 70mm in size. These are probably the largest UK specimens of wulfenite.
Free-standing crystals are very rare and generally very small.
