Pyrolusite from
Ingray Gill, Caldbeck, Allerdale, Cumbria, England, UK


Classification
Species:Pyrolusite
Formula:Mn4+O2
Comments:Green et al. (2009): "Although pyrolusite was claimed in Kingsbury’s manuscript notes, no specimen has been traced in his collection and in view of the difficulties involved in characterising manganese oxide minerals to species level, the record should be regarded as unsubstantiated."
