Comments: | Although the crystals from this mine have been confirmed as an unknown species, it is believed by S.Rust that it may turn out to be Steverustite since the original element analysis may have been incorrect. Having said that, although the specimen submitted for the steverustite paper did have minute crystals of a Pb silicate on it, the latter crystals were far too small to do any descriptive work. |
Habit: | Lath-like |
Colour: | White |
Quality for species: | Good crystals or rich for species - important (!) |
