Detailed Mineral List:
| ⓘ Analcime Formula: Na(AlSi2O6) · H2O Habit: trapezohedral Description: A single crystal 2.5 cm pseudomorphed by talc, in datolite, calcite, prehnite. Reference: Former Ed Force collection |
| ⓘ Anhydrite Formula: CaSO4 Localities: Habit: cleavable masses Colour: pale blue Description: "...light blue, glassy, and completely unaltered, in masses up to two or three inches across. It was intimately associated with pectolite and thaumasite..." Schooner (1961) Reference: Schooner, Richard. (1961), The Mineralogy of Connecticut. Fluorescent House, Branford, Connecticut. |
| ⓘ Calcite Formula: CaCO3 Localities: Reference: Collection of Mark A Gottlieb |
| ⓘ Datolite Formula: CaB(SiO4)(OH) Localities: Habit: complex equant Colour: colorless to very pale yellow-green Description: "...outstanding specimens of small glassy crystals, of two different habits, intimately associated, coated with gilt-like stilpnomelane." Schooner (1961) Reference: Collection of Mark A Gottlieb; Schooner, Richard. (1961), The Mineralogy of Connecticut. Fluorescent House, Branford, Connecticut. |
| ⓘ Fluorite Formula: CaF2 Locality: State Route 189 road cut, Tariffville Gorge, Bloomfield, Hartford County, Connecticut, USA Description: Mentioned rather ambiguously by Schooner (1961) as "evidently existed in trap-rock at a rather recent road cut in Tariffville... a rare association", with no further details. Reference: Schooner, Richard. (1961), The Mineralogy of Connecticut. Fluorescent House, Branford, Connecticut. |
| ⓘ Pectolite Formula: NaCa2Si3O8(OH) Localities: Habit: spherical aggregates of radiating acicular crystals Colour: white, light tan Description: "The author was given several fine specimens of radiating white pectolite, with anhydrite and thaumasite, from a road cut, in trap-rock, at Tariffville. The material was very clean, though it has since become tan, and, occurred in extremely hard and non-porous basalt." Schooner (1961). Reference: Schooner, Richard. (1961), The Mineralogy of Connecticut. Fluorescent House, Branford, Connecticut. |
| ⓘ Prehnite Formula: Ca2Al2Si3O10(OH)2 Localities: Reference: Ed Force collection; Ed Force collection |
| ⓘ Quartz Formula: SiO2 Localities: Reference: Ed Force collection; Ed Force collection |
| ⓘ Stilpnomelane Formula: (K,Ca,Na)(Fe,Mg,Al)8(Si,Al)12(O,OH)36 · nH2O Locality: State Route 189 road cut, Tariffville Gorge, Bloomfield, Hartford County, Connecticut, USA Description: "gilt-like" and encrusting quartz, calcite, datolite, and other species, according to Schooner (1961) Reference: Schooner, Richard. (1961), The Mineralogy of Connecticut. Fluorescent House, Branford, Connecticut. |
| ⓘ Talc Formula: Mg3Si4O10(OH)2 Habit: trapezohedral (pseudomorph) Colour: dark greenish-black Description: Soft, dark blackish-green mineral pseudomorphing what apparently was an analcime crystal, in datolite, calcite, prehnite. Reference: Former Ed Force collection |
| ⓘ Thaumasite Formula: Ca3(SO4)[Si(OH)6](CO3) · 12H2O Localities: Reference: Januzzi, 1976. Mineral Localities of CT and Southeastern NY State, p.275 |
