| Comments: | Because the Li content of the mineral in sample FKM-30 has been calculated by stoichiometry and has not been unequivocally verified analytically, this phase should currently only be considered "believed present but unconfirmed". Note that the Li-dominant end-member, nambulite, has been reported from the locality, so the possibility that the Na-dominant end-member may also be locally present would not be unexpected. |
