ⓘ Anilite
Formula: Cu7S4
ⓘ Aragonite
Formula: CaCO3
ⓘ Azurite
Formula: Cu3(CO3)2(OH)2
ⓘ Baryte
Formula: BaSO4
Description: In sections 18 and 19 southeast of Paoli, large barite-claystone concretions cover the floors of several gullies. The barite is crystalline, assumes several pale tints, but does not form distinct crystals. These concretions range up to 25 cm in diameter. Almost pure barite balls of radiating crystal structure occur in scattered locations throughout the Paoli district. Known locally as “raisin rocks,” these barite nodules are almost concentrated where removed from clay by weathering. The nodules range from a few millimeters to several centimeters in diameter. A few exhibit yellow to orange fluorescence in concentric bands under short-wave ultraviolet radiation. Elsewhere barite is a cementing agent of the sandstone, and occasionally forms the well-known “rose rocks” consisting of rounded intergrown plates with much included sand, in the rough shape of a flower. The Paoli “roses” are poorly formed and paler in color than those found in Cleveland County to the north.
