Predictive Mineralogy
This table is based on statistical analysis of other localities containing similar species to the ones found at this locality.
Possible missing species | Formula | Match % | Due to recorded presence of |
---|
Muscovite | KAl2(AlSi3O10)(OH)2 | 51.80% | Kaolinite (51.81 %) |
Key: Mineral matches key element mineralogy of deposit Key element(s) in mineral not listed for deposit (-20% score)
Predicting paragenetic modes of deposit
Green indicates almost certain match based on minerals unique to a certain deposit type. Yellow indicates a possibly poor match, but should not be entirely discounted. Scores > 100 indicate strong confidence.
