| Species: | Hisingerite |
| Formula: | Fe23+(Si2O5)(OH)4 · 2H2O |
| Comments: | Richardson adds hisingerite to a paragenetic sequence plot, with a question mark behind the name. More recent WDS testing on very good material gives Si and Fe, with a bit of Al as an impurity. The material is red, botryoidal, and resinous, with a conchoidal fracture, all fitting most closely with hisingerite. |
| Habit: | Botryoidal |
