Eugi
Name(s) in local language(s):
Eugui, Esteríbar (Esteribar), Navarra (Nafarroa), España
Eugi in Basque (Eugui in Spanish) is a village located in the municipality of Esteribar in the Foral Community of Navarre, Spain. It has the status of council. Eugi is located in the Basque-speaking linguistic area of Navarre.
Calvo and Sevillano (1991):
"The two magnesite quarries near Egui are located approximately at the km-33 and km-34 markers on the Comarcal 135 Road. The nearest town is Eugui, 4 km to the south, in the municipio of Esteribar, Navarra Province. One quarry consists of a large, flooded pit with small, active workings around the margin. The other (western) quarry is more important from a specimen standpoint. The quarries are operated by Magnesitas de Navarra, which owns a treatment plant at Zubiri, 15 km south of the quarries. There the magnesite is purified by heavy-liquid separation and is sintered at 1800 °C to produce refractory bricks. The locality name given to this occurrence on some old labels and in early published reports is "Asturreta" (Gonzalez and Arrese, 1977; Gomez de Llarena, 1965)."

Alphabetical List Tree DiagramDetailed Mineral List:
| ⓘ 'Apatite' Formula: Ca5(PO4)3(Cl/F/OH) |
| ⓘ Aragonite Formula: CaCO3 Localities: Habit: fan-shaped aggregates up to 10 cm, with individual crystals reaching up to 4 cm. In some cases, the aragonite crystals show sharp terminal faces, but acicular crystals with cloudy terminations are most common. Colour: colourless; white to brown |
| ✪ Bariosincosite Formula: Ba(VO)2(PO4)2 · 4H2O Habit: Divergent sprays of very thin rectangular crystals. Colour: pale green |
| ⓘ Baryte Formula: BaSO4 |
| ⓘ Cacoxenite Formula: Fe3+24AlO6(PO4)17(OH)12 · 75H2O |
| ⓘ Calcite Formula: CaCO3 Localities: Description: Calcite is very rare, occurring in small quantities with dolomite and as small crystals in geodes. The material named "calcita" by miners is actually dolomite. |
| ⓘ Chalcocite Formula: Cu2S |
| ⓘ Chalcopyrite Formula: CuFeS2 Localities: Description: Small crystals of chalcopyrite up to 5 mm in size have been found, associated with dolomite crystals. Some crystals have a superficial coating of chalcocite. Small masses up to 2 cm across are sometimes found scattered through massive dolomite. |
| ⓘ Crandallite Formula: CaAl3(PO4)(PO3OH)(OH)6 Description: The crandallite pseudomorph after fluellite crystals are locally abundant |
| ⓘ Dolomite Formula: CaMg(CO3)2 Localities: Habit: Rhombohedrons to 20cm Colour: pale gray Description: The best crystals were produced in the late 1960's. |
| ⓘ Evansite Formula: Al3(PO4)(OH)6 · 6H2O |
| ⓘ Goethite Formula: Fe3+O(OH) Localities: Habit: botryoidal crusts and masses in fissures in dolomite |
| ⓘ Graphite Formula: C Localities: Description: Graphite occurs as a component of carbonaceous matter which forms thin seams separating magnesite strata. In some areas, it forms lustrous layers of pure graphite. |
| ⓘ 'Limonite' |
| ⓘ Magnesite Formula: MgCO3 |
| ⓘ Malachite Formula: Cu2(CO3)(OH)2 Localities: Description: At least two habits of malachite have been found at the Eugui quarries. Pseudomorphs after chalcopyrite crystals to 3mm have been found, some of them hollow and filled with limonite. Well-formed malachite crystals to 4mm have also been found, in parallel growth. |
| ⓘ Mcguinnessite Formula: (Mg,Cu)2(CO3)(OH)2 |
| ⓘ Metavariscite Formula: AlPO4 · 2H2O |
| ⓘ Minyulite Formula: KAl2(PO4)2F · 4H2O |
| ⓘ Montgomeryite Formula: Ca4MgAl4(PO4)6(OH)4 · 12H2O |
| ⓘ Phosphosiderite Formula: FePO4 · 2H2O |
| ⓘ 'Pinolite' |
| ⓘ Pseudomalachite Formula: Cu5(PO4)2(OH)4 |
| ⓘ Pyrite Formula: FeS2 Localities: Description: Pyrite microcrystals occur in the carbonaceous seams between magnesite strata. Rare dolomite crystals can be seen to contain a myriad of minute pyrite pyritohedrons as inclusions. Pyrite crystals up to about 5mm are known. |
| ⓘ Quartz Formula: SiO2 |
| ⓘ Siderite Formula: FeCO3 References: |
| ⓘ Sphalerite Formula: ZnS |
| ⓘ 'Tetrahedrite Subgroup' Formula: Cu6(Cu4C2+2)Sb4S12S Localities: Description: Rare crystals up to 5 mm have been found on dolomite crystals |
| ⓘ 'Wad' Localities: Description: Unidentified manganese oxides occur as thin films on dolomite crystals |
