Actinolite
Formula: ◻Ca2(Mg4.5-2.5Fe0.5-2.5)Si8O22(OH)2
'Agardite'
Habit: minute sprays of needles
Colour: pale green
Description: Identified on a small specimen from the upper west level submitted to MPC by W. van den Berg. EPMA shows the presence of Ce, La, and Nd; Bi was not detected. Small grain size prevented quantitative results. [...] Agardite-mixite has subsequently been identified (BM(NH): XRD) on a specimen from the C.M. Leppington Collection.
Agardite-(La)
Formula: LaCu6(AsO4)3(OH)6 · 3H2O
Aikinite ?
Formula: PbCuBiS3
Description: Kingsbury reference? Cooper & Stanley (1990): "As minute crystals in quartz stringers in greisen; the first British locality (previous references to 'aikinite' in Britain concern wolframite pseudomorphs after scheelite from Wheal Maudlin, Cornwall)."
Albite
Formula: Na(AlSi3O8)
Allophane
Formula: (Al2O3)(SiO2)1.3-2 · 2.5-3H2O
Alunite ?
Formula: KAl3(SO4)2(OH)6

Colour: cream to black
Ankerite
Formula: Ca(Fe2+,Mg)(CO3)2
Localities: Reported from at least 7 localities in this region.
Antlerite
Formula: Cu3(SO4)(OH)4
Description: Bridges et al. (2008): "Bridges et al. (2005) suggest that the earthy form of brochantite may often result from the decomposition of this mineral. This could explain the fact that earthy brochantite is relatively common at the site."
'Apatite'
Formula: Ca5(PO4)3(Cl/F/OH)
'Apatite Group'
Aragonite
Formula: CaCO3
Habit: tapering
Colour: white to colourless
Description: In the 'ankerite vein' in small cavities in ferroan dolomite.
Arseniosiderite
Formula: Ca2Fe3+3(AsO4)3O2 · 3H2O
Habit: minute scales and fibrous crusts

Formula: FeAsS
Localities: Reported from at least 6 localities in this region.
Arsentsumebite
Formula: Pb2Cu(AsO4)(SO4)(OH)
Atacamite ?
Formula: Cu2(OH)3Cl
Description: Bridges et al. (2011): "There are three specimens of atacamite in the NHM collections that Kingsbury claimed to have found at Hay Gill. [...] There are sound geochemical reasons for saying there is no possibility that a specimen as rich as this could have originated in the Caldbeck Fells and the same is true for the two lesser specimens. They are all virtually certainly fraudulent."
Aurichalcite
Formula: (Zn,Cu)5(CO3)2(OH)6
Azurite
Formula: Cu3(CO3)2(OH)2
Localities: Reported from at least 6 localities in this region.
Description: Cooper & Stanley (1990): "From the 30fm and 90fm level dumps (Hartley, 1984). A specimen in the King Collection (National Museum of Wales, Cardiff), obtained from an old collection by W.F. Davidson, and reputed to come from Thief Gills [i.e. probably the ancient outcrop workings in higher Roughton Gill] in 1912 is, if authentic, easily the best azurite from the area. It shows a striated crystal 15mm in diameter with fibrous malachite on 'copper pitch'."
Bariopharmacosiderite
Formula: Ba0.5Fe3+4(AsO4)3(OH)4 · 5H2O
Habit: pseudocubic
Colour: dark green, yellow-brown to pale green
Baryte
Formula: BaSO4

Formula: Be3Al2(Si6O18)
Description: Kingsbury reference. Cooper & Stanley (1990): "As small poor crystals in 'gilbertite' in specimens in the Kingsbury & Russell Collections, BM(NH), collected by the former who noted 'from north-west branch (= south drive on the Harding vein) of the new low-level cross-cut to the Harding vein - the vein in which beryl occurs is apparently an early member of the suite; also in iron-stained mica on dump' (Kingsbury, unpublished manuscript). The reference of Lysons & Lysons (1816: cx) to beryl from 'Caldew-beck ... found by the Rev. Mr. Mandall' probably refers to apatite."
Betpakdalite-CaMg
Formula: [Ca2(H2O)17Mg(H2O)6][Mo8As2Fe3+3O36(OH)]
Beudantite
Formula: PbFe3+3(AsO4)(SO4)(OH)6

Formula: K(Fe2+/Mg)2(Al/Fe3+/Mg/Ti)([Si/Al/Fe]2Si2O10)(OH/F)2
Bismite
Formula: Bi2O3
Colour: yellowish white
Description: Cooper & Stanley (1990): "the 'bismuth ochre' reported from 'Brandy Gill' as an associate of bismuth (Goodchild, 1882: 104) may have been bismite or bismutite. Bismite has been recorded from Carrock mine 'in minute amounts' as a yellowish white alteration of bismuthinite (Davidson & Thomson, 1951); and from the dumps of an old level 'at, or near, the junction of the east-west lead veins with the Emerson vein at the foot of Brandy Gill' (Hartley, 1984)."
Bismuthinite
Formula: Bi2S3
'Bismuth Ochre'
Description: Cooper & Stanley (1990): "the 'bismuth ochre' reported from 'Brandy Gill' as an associate of bismuth (Goodchild, 1882: 104) may have been bismite or bismutite."
Bismutite
Formula: (BiO)2CO3
Description: Cooper & Stanley (1990): "Recorded by Hitchen (1934) and listed from the 'main dump' by Hartley (1984). The 'bismuth ochre' reported from 'Brandy Gill' as an associate of bismuth (Goodchild, 1882: 104) may have been bismite or bismutite."
References:
Bornite
Formula: Cu5FeS4
Boulangerite
Formula: Pb5Sb4S11
Habit: acicular; fibrous; tufts; wool-like aggregates
Colour: dark grey
Description: Kingsbury reference. Cooper & Stanley (1990): "'As dark grey minute acicular crystals or fibres, tufts, or wool-like aggregates, or small fibrous patches' very similar to zinckenite and jamesonite which also occur here. Associated with pyrite, arsenopyrite, chalcopyrite, and galena (Kingsbury & Hartley, 1956: 298)."
Bournonite ?
Formula: PbCuSbS3
Description: Kingsbury reference.
'Brewsterite Subgroup' ?
Description: Cooper & Stanley (1990): "The 'brewsterite' recorded by Hall (1868) as an associate of tenorite and chalcopyrite is unlikely to be the zeolitic brewsterite (of Brooke) as assumed by Young (1987). It is more likely to be the 'brewsterite' listed by Branston (1910) and Postlethwaite (1913) as 'protoxide of copper'. Although the latter is a synonym of cuprite, the name brewsterite in this context does not appear in any standard mineralogy or synonymy known to the authors and the precise definition of the term appears to be lost."
Brochantite
Formula: Cu4(SO4)(OH)6
Localities: Reported from at least 10 localities in this region.
Brookite
Formula: TiO2
Calcite
Formula: CaCO3
Localities: Reported from at least 14 localities in this region.

Description: As small crystals and masses with linarite from the mine dumps and from waste material at the foot of the 'hush' to the north of the lower dump.
Carminite
Formula: PbFe3+2(AsO4)2(OH)2
Localities: Reported from at least 7 localities in this region.
Colour: carmine-red
Description: Cooper & Stanley (1990): "Vein exposures near the mine, on the east side of Brandy Gill and in the dry tributary valley to the east [NY32403335] have yielded a few fairly rich specimens of carminite as minutes crystals and drusy crusts on quartz with beudantite (D.R. Middleton & M.P. Cooper Collections, det. University of Manchester Institute of Science and Technology (UMIST): IR)." Cooper & Stanley (1991): "occasionally as epimorphs after small mimetite crystals."
Carpholite
Formula: Mn2+Al2(Si2O6)(OH)4
Habit: thin, fibrous-radiating aggregates
Colour: pale yellow
Description: Kingsbury reference. Cooper & Stanley (1990): "As unusually pale, almost cream yellow, 'thin, fibrous-radiating aggregates in joints in white vein-quartz... almost certainly from the Emerson vein' (Kingsbury & Hartley, 1957). Specimens in the Kingsbury Collection (BM(NH)) match this description."
Cassiterite
Formula: SnO2
Description: Cooper & Stanley (1990): "A few small crystal sections, embedded in quartz and mica, were found by Kingsbury in 1953 from the Harding vein 'new low-level cross-cut, south drive' and are represented by specimens in the Russell and Kingsbury Collections, BM(NH). In addition, the King Collection (National Museum of Wales, Cardiff (NMW)) contains a good grey-brown incomplete geniculate twin, originally labelled scheelite, which, if authentic, is undoubtedly the best Carrock specimen extant. It may have been found during the 1940s working and was obtained by King from the H.F. Harwood collection (R.J. King, pers. comm.) The 'ores of tin, both of a resinous and nearly black colour' in a matrix 'nearly as hard as tempered steel', reported by Parson & White (1829) from 'a vein at Brandy Gill near the Caldew' no doubt refer to scheelite and wolframite."
Cerussite
Formula: PbCO3
Localities: Reported from at least 14 localities in this region.
Habit: acicular; granular
Colour: white
Description: Cooper & Stanley (1990): "First mentioned, without description, by Greg & Lettsom (1858: 391) from 'Bray Fell'. Crystals are generally insignificant but an attractive combination of silky, white, acicular crystals (< 10mm) with small green pyromorphite crystals was found on the low-level dump (Kingsbury collection, BM(NH)). Crystals (< 20mm) occur with bright canary yellow pyromorphite on the top level dumps."
Cesàrolite
Formula: PbMn4+3O6(OH)2
Chalcocite
Formula: Cu2S
Chalcopyrite
Formula: CuFeS2

'Columbite-(Fe)-Columbite-(Mn) Series'
Description: Cooper & Stanley (1990): "Forms minute grains (exceptionally up to 180µm, but mostly < 30µm) in arsenopyrite, scheelite and carbonate minerals replacing wolframite. Mangano-columbite is the dominant end-member at Carrock (Beddoe-Stephens & Fortey, 1981).
Columbite-(Mn)
Formula: Mn2+Nb2O6
Conichalcite
Formula: CaCu(AsO4)(OH)
Habit: crystalline crust on quartz
Colour: dark green
Description: Cooper & Stanley (1990): "Specimens labelled conichalcite are preserved in the Russell and Kingsbury Collections, BM(NH), but Kingsbury seems later to have considered the mineral to be a calcian duftite ('calcioduftite') although the X-ray powder pattern was 'close to (but by no means identical with) that of conichalcite (Kingsbury & Hartley, MS). Conichalcite has been found intimately associated with bayldonite forming a dark green crystalline crust on quartz (det. BM(NH): XRD, B. Young, pers. comm.)."

Habit: pseudo-cubic or pseudo-octahedral crystals up to 1.5mm across
Colour: dark brown to almost black
Description: Cooper & Stanley (1990): "From debris near the High level, on a few specimens collected in 1976 as dark brown to almost black, pseudo-cubic (or pseudo-octahedral) crystals to 1.5mm across, scattered on lustrous black goethite in cavities in gossany quartz, associated with small amounts of later, green, pyromorphite (D.R. Middleton, pers. comm.; det. BM(NH): XRD). A further specimen was later confirmed as corkite by XRD and semi-quantitative analysis at the Royal Museum of Scotland (M. Wirth, pers. comm.)."
Coronadite
Formula: Pb(Mn4+6Mn3+2)O16
Habit: massive to fibrous; botryoidal
Colour: silver-white inclining to steel-grey metallic when fresh, tarnishing to dull black
Description: Green et al. (2008): "Coronadite is rare in the Caldbeck Fells. It was reported by Hartley (1959) from Dry Gill Mine and is sometimes assumed to be fairly common there, but recent research has shown that almost all of the black manganese oxide that accompanies Dry Gill campylite is romanèchite."
Corundum
Formula: Al2O3
Cosalite
Formula: Pb2Bi2S5
Habit: (tufts of) capillary fibres and (compact) fibrous patches
Colour: steel grey; very dark grey with bluish or yellowish tarnish

Localities: Reported from at least 8 localities in this region.
Crocoite ?
Formula: PbCr6+O4
Description: Cooper & Stanley (1990): "A specimen, formerly part of the R.C. Walsh Collection, now in the King Collection (National Museum of Wales, Cardiff) is said to have originated in the Brandy Gill area. It is almost certainly incorrectly provenanced (R.J. King, pers. comm.)."
Cryptomelane
Formula: K(Mn4+7Mn3+)O16

References:
Duftite var. Calcio-duftite
Formula: (Pb,Ca)CuAsO4(OH)
Description: Cooper & Stanley (1990): Kingsbury & Hartley claimed that material they had collected resembled, but was not identical with duftite was actually an intermediate between duftite and conichalcite. They coined the term 'calcio-duftite' for this mineral on the basis of the intermediate nature of the x-ray powder spacings and a qualitative (spectrographic) analysis that showed significant calcium. Claringbull also mentioned the affinity of the x-ray pattern of Brandy Gill duftite with conichalcite and commented on the variation of refractive index within individual spherules of the mineral which, he suggested, resulted from a corresponding variation in composition with the core being richer in lead than the outer areas.
Duftite var. Duftite-β
Formula: PbCu(AsO4)(OH)
Description: Cooper & Stanley (1990): "Most duftite from Brandy Gill appears to be β-duftite as defined by Guillemin (1956: 70), who re-examined Claringbull's (1951) x-ray data. Infra-red absorption spectrophotometry readily distinguishes α- and β-duftite and also shows the predominance of the latter at this locality (R.S.W. Braithwaite, pers. comm.)."
'Duftite-alpha'
Formula: PbCu(AsO4)(OH)
Habit: globular masses
Description: Cooper & Stanley (1990): "a few specimens recently examined appear to be α-duftite which, at Brandy Gill, forms small globular masses on quartz (M.P. Cooper Collection, det. P.J. Dunn, Smithsonian Institution: XRD) or minute crystals with agardite-mixite (det. BM(NH): XRD, C.M. Leppington, pers. comm.)"
Elyite
Formula: Pb4Cu(SO4)O2(OH)4 · H2O
Habit: minute lath-like crystals in a galena-chalcopyrite matrix associated with chenite and hydrocerussite; as a pale purple coating on galena in a specimen collected by P. Briscoe from waste near the old stamps at the Red Gill-Swinburn Gill confluence (det. BM(NH): XRD). Probably dump-formed (Brisco, 1986).

Formula: X3Z2(SiO4)3
Goethite
Formula: Fe3+O(OH)
Localities: Reported from at least 14 localities in this region.
'Grünlingite' ?
Description: Kingsbury reference. Kingsbury (1965): "For many years the bismuth telluride tetradymite (Bi2T2S) has been accepted as a British species, but this status has never been satisfactorily established. It was originally thought to occur in Brandy Gill, Carrock Fell, Cumberland, though in 1858 Greg and Lettsom had stated that the mineral appeared to differ much in composition from other tetradymites. The Carrock mineral was later regarded as a new species and was named grünlingite, but further investigations have shown that these specimens are not all identical and probably represent several varieties or phases of the allied mineral joséite, with compositions near Bi4TeS2: none of them, so far, have proved to be tetradymite."

Förtsch (1967), Mineral. Mag. 36, 530." Cooper & Stanley (1990): "Supposedly a component of 'plumbogummite' (Förtsch 1967). However, the analysis of plumbogummite by Hartley (1900) - used by Förtsch - shows no sulphate and only trace amounts of arsenic."

The mineral was found in specimens from the dumps of the eastern level as small (< 1.5mm), dark olive-green bladed crystals on a yellowish-green crystalline mineral (which 'gives [an x-ray powder] pattern and spacings very close to those of the well-known pale blue Cumberland plumbogummite' op. cit.: 724.) It was found in cavities in granophyre presumed to be from the vein wall. Only a few specimens were obtained (Kingsbury and Russell Collections, BM(NH)) and, despite the exertions of a generation of collectors, none has been found since."

Rosasite
Formula: (Cu,Zn)2(CO3)(OH)2
Habit: spherical aggregates and masses
Colour: pale blue
Description: Bridges et al. (2011): "Rosasite was first reported in the British Isles by Kingsbury and Hartley (1957), who described several occurrences in the Lake District, mainly in the Caldbeck Fells and including Roughton Gill Mine. Although rosasite is widespread, usually in small amounts in British orefields, it is very common at Roughton Gill and it is surprising the mineral was overlooked for as long as it was. The Kingsbury Collection contains a group of small specimens of rosasite from the 60-fathom dumps. Collected in 1950, the rosasite is associated with hemimorphite; the specimens are typical of the site and there is no reason to doubt the validity of the Kingsbury and Hartley report. On the 90-fathom dumps, it occurs as small (up to 1 mm) blue-green hemispheres perched as individuals on other minerals, particularly hemimorphite, but commonly the hemispheres aggregate to form continuous botryoidal crusts which can cover areas up to 20 cm2."

Description: Green et al. (2008): "Tetrahedrite-tennantite with an intermediate composition is listed from higher Roughton Gill by Hartley (1984). We have been unable to trace the specimen in the Kingsbury Collection at the NHM. Tetrahedrite has been confirmed along the easterly strike extension of the Roughton Gill South Vein at Driggith Mine (Stanley and Vaughan, 1981), but tennantite remains unconfirmed. There is no reference to tetrahedrite or tennantite from higher Roughton Gill in any of Kingsbury's X-ray catalogues and it may be that specimens were found independently by Jack Hartley. A more extensive investigation of the primary mineralisation is required to resolve this problem."

Tsumebite
Formula: Pb2Cu(PO4)(SO4)(OH)
Habit: drusy aggregates; scaly crystals
Colour: apple green
Description: Cooper & Stanley (1990): "An arsenatian tsumebite was recorded by Embrey (1977) from 'Carrock Fell', but the collector of the material subsequently reported the locality more precisely at Roughton Gill at [NY302343]; i.e. between the 60 and 90fm level (Moffit, 1979). The authors have found tsumebite to be an occasional associate of brochantite in specimens collected from the main dumps of Roughton Gill. It forms tiny (c. 0.25mm) pale apple green drusy aggregates and rarely scaly crystals on compact quartz. Associated brochantite crystals reach 2-3mm and cerussite is occasionally present. First identified on a specimen collected by D.R. Middleton (det. BM(NH): XRD; University of Manchester Institute of Science and Technology (UMIST): IR." Bridges et al. (2011): "Small (c. 0.25 mm) apple green drusy crystals of ‘tsumebite’ in association with brochantite were noted by Cooper and Stanley (1990). It remains an uncommon mineral but has been found in the current study as crusts of similar sized crystals, again associated with brochantite. Tindle et al. (2006) analysed four ‘tsumebite aggregates’ and showed the presence of arsenic in all of them. The arsenic becomes richer towards the outside of the crystals and in one case, at the outer edge of the AsO4/PO4 site, is 53 mol% AsO4 and just falls within the arsentsumebite field."

Formula: UO2
Description: Cooper & Stanley (1990): "Found as minute grains (0.01 - 0.20mm) in the greisen wall-rock of a vein 'immediately west of the former smithy serving Carrock Mine'. Since radioactivity was restricted to the vicinity of the vein, the authors (Dawson & Harrison, 1966) suggested that the uraninite was associated with the vein mineralization."

Habit: short-prismatic or barrel-shaped crystals or globular aggregates; radiating fibrous crystals
Colour: cream to grey; pale buff to reddish brown

Wooldridgeite
Formula: Na2CaCu2+2(P2O7)2 · 10H2O
Habit: tapering blades/prisms
Colour: aquamarine blue
Description: Cooper & Stanley (1990): "Sprays of tapering bladed aquamarine blue transparent crystals to 1.5mm on chrysocolla in quartz have been shown by XRD (BM(NH) & Leeds Univ.) and semi-quantitative EPMA (M. Rothwell, pers. comm.) to be a probable new species. Only two very small specimens have been found (J. Dickinson & P. Braithwaite Collections). The XRD pattern is closely related to that of the magnesium phosphate bobierrite (D.I. Green, pers. comm.)." Bridges et al. (2011): "A copper calcium sodium pyro-phosphate hydrate occurring as ‘sprays of tapering bladed aquamarine crystals’ was described as an unknown species from the dumps of Roughton Gill Mine by Cooper and Stanley (1990, pp. 132-133). [...] Wooldridgeite was identified on a few small specimens collected by the late Peter Braithwaite and the late John Dickinson on the 90-fathom level dumps at Roughton Gill Mine. It occurs as pale ice-blue tapering prismatic crystals, which exceptionally reach 1.8 mm in length, but are usually much smaller than this. The crystals are commonly associated with ‘chrysocolla’ in porous quartz. They are very late in the paragenetic sequence. A few overgrow recent fractures in the quartz matrix which indicate a post-mining origin. It has not been found in this study."

Mineralization age: Phanerozoic : 282 Ma to 178 Ma

Important note: This table is based only on rock and mineral ages recorded on mindat.org for this locality and is not necessarily a complete representation of the geochronology, but does give an indication of possible mineralization events relevant to this locality. As more age information is added this table may expand in the future. A break in the table simply indicates a lack of data entered here, not necessarily a break in the geologic sequence. Grey background entries are from different, related, localities.
