Species: | Britholite-(Y) |
Formula: | (Y,Ca)5(SiO4)3OH |
Comments: | First described as "Britholite-(Y)" by Griffin et al. The analysis published in their paper however showed that the sample studied had a high content of F (1.18 wt%), thus > 50 apfu and should be a fluorbritholite according to the revision of the nomenclature of the apatite supergroup (Ferraris et al 2010). Britholite-(Y) may occur at the locality but further studies are necessary. |
