Comments: | "Several lean examples of scorzalite and siderite, labeled "Rock Landing quarry", came from the Charles Thomas collection. They had been obtained when the locality was active in the late 1930s. The scorzalite, erroneously called "vivianite" on the label, is of a rich blue color and partly crystallized. The X-ray pattern suggests a composition somewhere between scorzalite and lazulite. A little augelite is intergrown." Schooner (circa 1980s). |
