Detailed Mineral List:
ⓘ Almandine Formula: Fe2+3Al2(SiO4)3 |
ⓘ Graphite Formula: C |
ⓘ 'Hornblende Root Name Group' Formula: ◻Ca2(Z2+4Z3+)(AlSi7O22)(OH,F,Cl)2 |
ⓘ Magnetite Formula: Fe2+Fe3+2O4 |
ⓘ Pyrite Formula: FeS2 |
ⓘ Pyrrhotite Formula: Fe1-xS |
ⓘ Safflorite Formula: (Co,Ni,Fe)As2 Habit: grains up to 1 cm in size Colour: tin-white metalic Description: in polished section, shows week pleochroism. occasionally occurs in moderatly wide twin lamellae. Safflorite at huffs church has particularly low cobalt content, and it strongly suggests that a Safflorite (fe) species be named to better describe the occurence here. |
