Actinolite
Formula: ◻Ca2(Mg4.5-2.5Fe0.5-2.5)Si8O22(OH)2
'Amphibole Supergroup'
Formula: AB2C5(T8O22)W2
'Amphibole Supergroup var. Uralite'

Anatase
Formula: TiO2
Baryte
Formula: BaSO4
Description: Barite occure as concretions in the schist. Dons (1956) writes that some of the barite explode when it's hold in a hand, and fragments from 1mm to 1cm are thrown up to 1m away! The explotions are caused by CO2-gas bubbles under pressure as inclutions in the barite.
Calcite
Formula: CaCO3
Epidote
Formula: (CaCa)(AlAlFe3+)O[Si2O7][SiO4](OH)
'Feldspar Group'
Goethite
Formula: Fe3+O(OH)
Hematite
Formula: Fe2O3
Magnetite
Formula: Fe2+Fe3+2O4
'Monazite Group'
Formula: REE(PO4)
