Detailed Mineral List:

ⓘ Albite
Formula: Na(AlSi3O8)
ⓘ Allanite-(Ce)
Formula: (CaCe)(AlAlFe2+)O[Si2O7][SiO4](OH)
ⓘ Aluminocerite-(CeCa)
Formula: (Ce6Ca3)◻Al(SiO4)3[SiO3(OH)]4(OH)3
Description: Small rose-colored crystals and irregular grains. Microprobe analysis in 1990 recognized that it was a cerite-(Ce) but with dominant Al in the M site of the structure, (Before first description of the species aluminocerite-(Ce))
ⓘ Bastnäsite-(Ce)
Formula: Ce(CO3)F
Habit: Grains; subhedral, platy mm-sized xls
Colour: Yellow to yellowish brown
Description: in "yttrofluorite"
ⓘ Britholite-(Y)
Formula: (Y,Ca)5(SiO4)3OH
ⓘ Cerite-(CeCa)
Formula: (Ce7Ca2)◻Mg(SiO4)3(SiO3OH)4(OH)3
Description: Showed to be alumocerite-(Ce) (for further information see under alumocerite-(Ce)
ⓘ Fluorapatite
Formula: Ca5(PO4)3F
ⓘ Fluorbritholite-(Y) (TL)
Formula: (Y,Ca)5(SiO4)3F
Type Locality:
Habit: irregular grains and coarse, hexagonal, tabular crystals up to 1 mm
Description: embedded in granular aggregates of creamcolored Y-rich fluorite (“yttrofluorite") and allanite-(Ce).
ⓘ Fluorite
Formula: CaF2
Colour: creamcolored
ⓘ Fluorite var. Yttrofluorite
Formula: (Ca1-xYx)F2+x where 0.05 < x < 0.3
Colour: creamcolored
ⓘ Gadolinite-(Y)
Formula: Y2Fe2+Be2Si2O10
ⓘ Hundholmenite-(Y)
Formula: (Y,REE,Ca,Na)15(Al,Fe3+)(CaxAs3+1-x)(Si,As5+)Si6B3(O,F)48
Habit: small mm-sized crystals
Colour: greyish yellow; greyish
Description: Found in yttrofluorite, also as grey aggregates along joints
ⓘ Kainosite-(Y)
Formula: Ca2Y2(SiO3)4(CO3) · H2O
ⓘ Molybdenite
Formula: MoS2
ⓘ Monazite-(Ce)
Formula: Ce(PO4)
ⓘ Muscovite
Formula: KAl2(AlSi3O10)(OH)2
ⓘ Okanoganite-(Y)
Formula: (Na,Ca)3(Y,Ce)12Si6B2O27F14
Description: Later showed to be a new mineral, hundholmenite-(Y)
ⓘ Pyrite
Formula: FeS2
ⓘ Quartz
Formula: SiO2
ⓘ Talc
Formula: Mg3Si4O10(OH)2
ⓘ Tengerite-(Y)
Formula: Y2(CO3)3 · 2-3H2O
ⓘ Thalénite-(Y)
Formula: Y3Si3O10F
Description: Fluorthalénite-(Y) and thalénite-(Y) are now longer separate species. Thalénite-(Y) is redefined by IMA in 2014 (IMA 14-D) as a F-dominant species with ideal composition Y3Si3O10F. Specimens from this locality are thus now labelled thalénite-(Y).
ⓘ Xenotime-(Y)
Formula: Y(PO4)
