Dumfriesshire
A quartz vein carrying romanèchite occurs just below the waterfall at NX 92843 65385.
Williams (1973): "Patrick Dudgeon, in his "Notes on the Minerals of Dumfries and Galloway", comments that "Antimonite (stibnite) was said to be found near that locality; I have looked for it very carefully, but never found a trace of it" - no modern record exists for this locality but Dudgeon felt that perhaps there had been some confusion with the manganese ores, which do exist in the Kinharvie Burn, "although there is little resemblance between these two minerals."
