References: |
| ⓘ Chalcopyrite Formula: CuFeS2 Localities: Reported from at least 13 localities in this region. Description: Light metallic yellow masses to a few cms in the veinstone. References: |
| ⓘ 'Chlorite Group' Localities: References: |

| ⓘ Evansite ? Formula: Al3(PO4)(OH)6 · 6H2O Habit: Amorphous. Colour: Milk white to creamy white, also various light to mid browns when stained by 'limonite' Description: Many fracture surfaces in the Wavellite-rich mudstones are coated with a milky-white, amorphous material, often stained with 'limonite'. No crystalline structure has been observed in this material to date. Some fractures completely infilled with this material.
Placement on the outside of wavellite balls places formation late in the mineralisation of the site.
While still wet, the texture is somewhat greasy and reminiscent of fungal growth, but on drying, a fine, earthy texture is revealed, with a hardness of around 2.5 - 3
Tentative identification requires further investigation. |

Very rare specimens of micro Native Gold some of which is crystalline have been found in the veinstone. All of the dumps have an estimate of up to 700oz of gold in them. See Release No. 15: An appraisal of the gold potential of mine dumps in the North Molton area, North Devon (BGS free download) References: |
| ⓘ Gypsum Formula: CaSO4 · 2H2O Habit: Euhedral, typically blocky, tabular, occasionally prismatic to 2mm. Also encrusting, anhedral. Colour: Clear white to yellowish and brownish. Description: Soft, delicate druses of fine gypsum crystals on some parts of the quarry north wall. Occasionally deposited on mosses and lichens. |
| ⓘ Hematite Formula: Fe2O3 Localities: Reported from at least 20 localities in this region. References: |

| ⓘ 'Manganese Oxides var. Manganese Dendrites' Habit: Dendritic - coarsely crystalline to lacy dendritic encrustations. Colour: Black Description: The development of manganese dendrites is particularly varied in this quarry - ranging from coarse, tangible crystals infilling fracture voids down to delicate, mossy developments across the siltstone surfaces.

Geochronology
Mineralization age: Carboniferous : 341 Ma to 326.4 ± 1.6 MaImportant note: This table is based only on rock and mineral ages recorded on mindat.org for this locality and is not necessarily a complete representation of the geochronology, but does give an indication of possible mineralization events relevant to this locality. As more age information is added this table may expand in the future. A break in the table simply indicates a lack of data entered here, not necessarily a break in the geologic sequence. Grey background entries are from different, related, localities.
