Locality type: | Quarry |
Classification |
---|
|
Species: | Meurigite-Na |
Formula: | NaFe83+(PO4)6(OH)7 · 6.5H2O |
Comments: | These crystals give an X-ray diffraction pattern similar to meurigite and the Na-rich environment of the locality suggests these will be the sodium-rich analogue of meurigite. Chemical analysis is required to confirm the identification. |
Habit: | Spherical aggregates of needles-llike crystals |
Colour: | yellowish brown |
