| ⓘ Natrojarosite ? Formula: NaFe3(SO4)2(OH)6 Description: Kingsbury reference. Kingsbury & Hartley (1958): "A closely allied mineral [to natrojarosite], containing 1.99% Na2O and 3.5% K2O and showing affinities to both natrojarosite and alunite, has been collected from a quartz-carbonate vein cutting a highly altered quartz-dolerite at Embleton Quarry, about 2 miles west of Bassenthwaite Lake railway station." |
| ⓘ Pectolite Formula: NaCa2Si3O8(OH) |
| ⓘ Quartz Formula: SiO2 |
| ⓘ Scorodite Formula: Fe3+AsO4 · 2H2O |
