Andalusite from
Naugatuck, New Haven County, Connecticut, USA


Locality type:Town
Classification
Species:Andalusite
Formula:Al2(SiO4)O
Formation:Primary
Comments:Former crystals to 9 cm pseudomorphed by very fine-grained kyanite and muscovite in quartz matrix. Found in a glacially transported rock near State Routes 8 and 63 (Interchange 26), the in-situ source rock is unknown. These pseudomorphs are rare and unusual, E. S. Dana reported similar pseudomorphs at the kyanite locality in Washington, Connecticut (aka, Judd's Bridge). Unaltered andalusite was historically reported only from Litchfield.
Habit:elongated prismatic
Quality for species:Good crystals or rich for species - important (!)
Significance:Unusual or interesting association, relationships with other species, pseudomorphism etc. - see notes.
Abundance at site:Very Rare
Confirmation
Validity:Believed Valid
