| ⓘ Baryte Formula: BaSO4 Description: Outstanding crystals occur with numerous forms and habits. Bladed pink crystals to 10 cm, thin brown blades to 6 cm in groups to 20 cm and quartz-coated groups to 20 cm are not uncommon. References: |
| ⓘ Calcite Formula: CaCO3 References: |
| ⓘ Fluorite Formula: CaF2 Description: Yellow crystals to 2 cm in groups to 10 cm have been found. References: |
| ⓘ Goethite Formula: Fe3+O(OH) References: |
| ⓘ Gypsum Formula: CaSO4 · 2H2O Description: Granular to fibrous, often fills quartz and barite vugs. References: |
| ⓘ Hematite Formula: Fe2O3 References: |
| ⓘ Jarosite Formula: KFe3+3(SO4)2(OH)6 References: |
| ⓘ Quartz Formula: SiO2 Description: Large groups of clear, white, purple, pink and orange, to 30 cm, are not uncommon. Individuals reach 1 cm and line vugs to over a meter. Often coats barite blades to 15 cm, forming outstanding pseodomorphs of quartz after barite. References: |
