| Comments: | Bridges et al. (2011): "Young (1987) notes that there is a specimen of this mineral in the Keswick Museum labelled ‘Roughton Gill’. However, the specimen consists of a small dark brown ochrous looking mass with white streaks. No bornite is visible from outside the cabinet and the matrix does not look typical of Roughton Gill Mine. It has not been found in the current study and it is considered that this mineral should not be included in the list of Roughton Gill Mine species." | |
