| ⓘ Formula: NaFe2+3Al6(Si6O18)(BO3)3(OH)3(OH) Description: The "schorl" from this locality has been chemically analyzed and is dravite, not schorl, by Tony Nikischer.
The tourmaline people were calling schorl was tested extensively and all turned out to be dravite (Peter Megaw, pers. comm. 2019 to Rolf Luetcke). |
