| Classification |

|
| Species: | Despujolsite |
| Formula: | Ca3Mn4+(SO4)2(OH)6 · 3H2O |
| Comments: | There are two similar papers referenced, both devoted to the same site(s). Only one paper reports despujolsite, based exclusively on the PXRD data, but no reflections are actually marked - the name "despujolsite" is only given in the figure caption. Also, occurrence of despujolsite, with clearly oxidized manganese, at such localities, is quite conspicious. |
