Detailed Mineral List:

ⓘ Albite
Formula: Na(AlSi3O8)
ⓘ Almandine
Formula: Fe2+3Al2(SiO4)3
ⓘ 'Amphibole Supergroup'
Formula: AB2C5(T8O22)W2
ⓘ Beryl
Formula: Be3Al2(Si6O18)
ⓘ 'Biotite'
Formula: K(Fe2+/Mg)2(Al/Fe3+/Mg/Ti)([Si/Al/Fe]2Si2O10)(OH/F)2
ⓘ Calcioancylite-(Ce)
Formula: (Ce,Ca,Sr)CO3(OH,H2O)
Description: Originally, the formula was given as "(La,Ce,Nd)x(Ca,Sr)2-x(CO3)2(OH)x(2-x)H2O" by Walter & Postl (1983), but re-analysis of the sample by Franz Walter later showed it to be Ce-dominant (Walter Postl pers. comm. to Uwe Kolitsch, 2018).
ⓘ Calcite
Formula: CaCO3
ⓘ 'Chabazite'
ⓘ 'Chlorite Group'
ⓘ Diopside
Formula: CaMgSi2O6
ⓘ Dravite
Formula: NaMg3Al6(Si6O18)(BO3)3(OH)3(OH)
ⓘ 'Feldspar Group'
ⓘ 'Garnet Group'
Formula: X3Z2(SiO4)3
ⓘ Grossular
Formula: Ca3Al2(SiO4)3
ⓘ Kyanite
Formula: Al2(SiO4)O
ⓘ 'Mica Group'
ⓘ Microcline
Formula: K(AlSi3O8)
ⓘ Microcline var. Amazonite
Formula: K(AlSi3O8)
ⓘ Montmorillonite
Formula: (Na,Ca)0.33(Al,Mg)2(Si4O10)(OH)2 · nH2O
ⓘ Muscovite
Formula: KAl2(AlSi3O10)(OH)2
ⓘ Povondraite ?
Formula: NaFe3+3(Mg2Fe3+4)(Si6O18)(BO3)3(OH)3O
Description: Considering the environment, the identification of povondraite here is highly unlikely! Probably a ferric-iron-bearing dravite.
ⓘ Prehnite
Formula: Ca2Al2Si3O10(OH)2
ⓘ Pyrite
Formula: FeS2
ⓘ Pyrrhotite
Formula: Fe1-xS
ⓘ Quartz
Formula: SiO2
ⓘ Quartz var. Rock Crystal
Formula: SiO2
ⓘ Quartz var. Smoky Quartz
Formula: SiO2
ⓘ Staurolite
Formula: Fe2+2Al9Si4O23(OH)
ⓘ 'Stilbite Subgroup'
Formula: M6-7[Al8-9Si27-28O72] · nH2O
ⓘ Titanite
Formula: CaTiO(SiO4)
ⓘ 'Tourmaline'
Formula: AD3G6(T6O18)(BO3)3X3Z
ⓘ 'Unnamed (La-analogue of Calcioancylite-(Ce))'
Description: Re-analysis of sample by Franz Walter later showed it to be Ce-dominant (Walter Postl pers. comm. to Uwe Kolitsch, 2018).
