| Abstract/Notes | A very fine and unusual crystal of sperrylite, recently presented by Mr. G. H. Beatty of Johannesburg to the mineral collection of the British Museum, came from a new adit on the Tweefontein farm (no. 1083), about 10 miles NNW. of Potgietersrust, Waterberg district, Transvaal. It had been found embedded in copper-stained limonite in crush-zones of banded ironstone underlying norite. The limonite matrix is presumably an alteration-product of sulphides (pyrrhotine, pentlandite, and chalcopyrite). The banded ironstone is an altered sediment belonging to the dolomite series, and is penetrated by apophyses from the basic margin of the Bushveld igneous complex. |
