Alphabetical List Tree DiagramDetailed Mineral List:
| ⓘ Baryte Formula: BaSO4 Description: The occurence is a baryte vein, containing mostly massive baryte with crystal lined vugs. The crystals are normally thin,square plates where the individual crystal can be several cm on the edge. A second generation w/ smaller transparent crystals are found on brown calcite. References: Kjerulf, Theodor (1878) Stenriget og Fjeldlæren. Tredie omarbeidede udgave. P.F. Steensballe. 292 pp. p.38 - short reference on Baryte from Elledalen |
| ⓘ Beidellite ? Formula: (Na,Ca0.5)0.3Al2((Si,Al)4O10)(OH)2 · nH2O Description: Described as beidellite by Barth (1940). According to Isachsen & Rosenqvist (1948) it is probably a mixture of montmorillonite and " bauxite-minerals" |
| ⓘ 'Biotite' Formula: K(Fe2+/Mg)2(Al/Fe3+/Mg/Ti)([Si/Al/Fe]2Si2O10)(OH/F)2 |
| ⓘ Bismuthinite Formula: Bi2S3 |
| ⓘ Calcite Formula: CaCO3 |
| ⓘ 'Farsundite' |
| ⓘ Fluorite Formula: CaF2 |
| ⓘ Galena Formula: PbS |
| ⓘ Goethite Formula: Fe3+O(OH) |
| ⓘ Hisingerite Formula: Fe3+2(Si2O5)(OH)4 · 2H2O Locality: Ravnehei tunnel, Farsund, Agder, Norway |
| ⓘ Hydrohalite Formula: NaCl · 2H2O Description: Konnerup-Madsen (1979) describes liquid inclusions in quartz in the Farsund granite. Hydrohalite occurs as a phase in the liquid inclusions below - 7 C degrees, and dissociate again at - 7 to 0,8 degrees C. Hydrohalite, will thus (theoretically) occure naturallly in the upper parts of the granite during cold winter months. References: |
| ⓘ Microcline Formula: K(AlSi3O8) |
| ⓘ 'Plagioclase' Formula: (Na,Ca)[(Si,Al)AlSi2]O8 |
| ⓘ Pyrolusite Formula: Mn4+O2 Habit: small fans rarely reaching 1 cm. Colour: metallic grey Description: Normally found with quartz and calcite References: |
| ⓘ Quartz Formula: SiO2 |
| ⓘ Ramsdellite Formula: Mn4+O2 |
| ⓘ Rhodochrosite Formula: MnCO3 |
| ⓘ Romanèchite Formula: (Ba,H2O)2(Mn4+,Mn3+)5O10 Locality: Lista, Farsund, Agder, Norway |
| ⓘ Stibnite Formula: Sb2S3 Locality: Aurstad, Farsund, Agder, Norway |
| ⓘ Sylvite Formula: KCl Description: Konnerup-Madsen (1979) describes sylvite in liquid inclusions in quartz in granites of the Farsund plutonic complex. |
