| Comments: | Cooper & Stanley (1990): "Ludlam Collection (BM(NH)) (det. BM(NH): XRD, 1988)." Bridges et al. (2011): "Cooper and Stanley (1990) report susannite with caledonite from Roughton Gill on a specimen in the Ludlam Collection in the NHM, but the specimen has the appearance of material from the Roughton South Vein on Balliway Rigg. In this study, it has only been found on one specimen, where it is associated with mattheddleite in one cavity with several minute crystals in another cavity. However, the provenance is considered doubtful for the reasons outlined previously under ‘mattheddleite’." | |
