Newly (1996) rediscovered classic amphibole and augite locality in tuff. The location has been known since 1903, and possibly even before that.
The Plundrichs Kuppe Hill locality (SE of Suletice) is one of many localities for kaersutitic amphibole of the Ceske Stredohori Mts. The amphibole crystals are concentrated especially in the marginal porous part of the basaltic body.
Data from Ulrych et al. (2018) show that the compositions of kaersutitic amphiboles range from ca 0.3 atoms per formula unit (apfu) to 0.7 apfu Ti. The larger crystals rarely contain enough Ti to qualify as kaersutite. The majority of large crystals are more likely to be pargasite or hastingsite root name amphiboles. As the crystals must be analyzed individually to set a correct ID, the term kaersutitic amphibole is often used for these amphiboles.
