| Comments: | Cooper & Stanley (1990): "An undifferentiated member of the symplesite-metavivianite series (det. BM(NH): XRD) occurs very rarely as small pale greenish grey flat radiating aggregates in quartz collected from the Nether Row Farm level dump in 1986 by B. Young (pers. comm.). The predominance of arsenic minerals at this locality suggests that the mineral is probably symplesite." | |
