ⓘ Chalcopyrite
Formula: CuFeS2
ⓘ Columbite-(Fe)
Formula: Fe2+Nb2O6
Description: 6 of 8 columbite-tantalite samples analysed by Sarbajna et al. (2000) are dominantly columbite-(Fe), but the crystals are heavily zoned and the core or rim may be another mineral in the group.
ⓘ Columbite-(Mn)
Formula: Mn2+Nb2O6
Description: Columbite-(Fe) is the dominant columbite-tantalite mineral at this locality, but 1 of 8 samples analysed by Sarbajna et al.(2000) has a distinct columbite-(Mn) core.
ⓘ 'Columbite-Tantalite'
Description: Sarbajna et al. (2000) presents 79 analyses of 8 columbite-tantalite specimens and show that they are heavily zoned, with both Fe/Mn and Nb/Ta dominant zones. Their results indicate that columbite-(Fe) is the dominant mineral in this group with 62 of 79 analyses, 4 analyses corresponds to columbite-(Mn), 4 analyses corresponds to tantalite-(Mn) and 9 analyses corresponds to tantalite-(Fe).
