Detailed Mineral List:

ⓘ Aegirine-augite
Formula: (NaaCabFe2+cMgd)(Fe3+eAlfFe2+gMgh)Si2O6
Description: Clinopyroxene in sample is zoned and consists of mixed patches of aegirine-augite, omphacite, and calcian ferrian jadeite... verified in thin section by EPMA.
ⓘ Baryte
Formula: BaSO4
ⓘ Birnessite
Formula: (Na,Ca)0.5(Mn4+,Mn3+)2O4 · 1.5H2O
ⓘ Braunite
Formula: Mn2+Mn3+6(SiO4)O8
ⓘ Epidote
Formula: (CaCa)(AlAlFe3+)O[Si2O7][SiO4](OH)
ⓘ Ferrihydrite
Formula: Fe3+10O14(OH)2
ⓘ Glaucophane
Formula: ◻[Na2][Mg3Al2]Si8O22(OH)2
ⓘ Hematite
Formula: Fe2O3
ⓘ Hollandite
Formula: Ba(Mn4+6Mn3+2)O16
ⓘ Jadeite
Formula: Na(Al,Fe3+)Si2O6
ⓘ Monazite-(Ce)
Formula: Ce(PO4)
Description: Scattered tiny inclusions of monazite-(Ce)... verified in thin section by EPMA.
ⓘ 'Monazite Group'
Formula: REE(PO4)
Description: Scattered tiny inclusions of monazite-(Ce)... verified in thin section by EPMA.
ⓘ Muscovite
Formula: KAl2(AlSi3O10)(OH)2
Description: scattered phengitic muscovite (~2.7 wt% FeO and ~3.1 wt% MgO), verified in thin section by EPMA.
ⓘ Nybøite
Formula: NaNa2(Mg3Al2)(AlSi7O22)(OH)2
Description: This mineral entry was based on a dealer label. The dealer used as reference based the identification on a pre-existing label from other sources. No analyses and no literature references has been found to indicate that nybøite is actually present at this locality, despite having the subduction sone geology required for this mineral to form.
ⓘ Omphacite

Description: Clinopyroxene in sample is zoned and consists of mixed patches of aegirine-augite, omphacite, and calcian ferrian jadeite... verified in thin section by EPMA.
ⓘ Paragonite
Formula: NaAl2(AlSi3O10)(OH)2
Description: scattered sheets of paragonite (Pg74-82) with more abundant phengitic muscovite... verified in thin section by EPMA.
ⓘ Piemontite
Formula: (CaCa)(AlAlMn3+)O[Si2O7][SiO4](OH)
ⓘ Rutile ?
Formula: TiO2
Description: Scattered tiny TiO2 inclusions (presumably rutile) associated with minor titanite... composition verified in thin section by EPMA... polymorph not verified.
ⓘ Spessartine
Formula: Mn2+3Al2(SiO4)3
ⓘ Titanite
Formula: CaTi(SiO4)O
Description: minor retrograde titanite, associated with TiO2
ⓘ Todorokite
Formula: (Na,Ca,K,Ba,Sr)1-x(Mn,Mg,Al)6O12 · 3-4H2O
