ⓘ Epidote
Formula: (CaCa)(AlAlFe3+)O[Si2O7][SiO4](OH)
ⓘ Galena
Formula: PbS
ⓘ Magnetite
Formula: Fe2+Fe3+2O4
ⓘ Marcasite
Formula: FeS2
ⓘ Marialite
Formula: Na4Al3Si9O24Cl
ⓘ Muscovite
Formula: KAl2(AlSi3O10)(OH)2
ⓘ Muscovite var. Sericite
Formula: KAl2(AlSi3O10)(OH)2
ⓘ Phlogopite
Formula: KMg3(AlSi3O10)(OH)2
ⓘ Potassic-chloro-hastingsite
Formula: KCa2(Fe2+4Fe3+)(Si6Al2)O22Cl2
Description: The paper cited lists the mineral as chlorine- and potassium-rich hastingsite, but refers to the old amphibole nomenclature of Leake. The analyses presented clearly show that K dominates over Na, and Cl over OH and F, corresponding to chloro-potassichastingsite.
