Light gray monoclinic crystals, up to 0.75 inch (1.9 em) across and exhibiting the wedgeshaped habit of titanite, occur in a thin clay seam within weathered metagraywacke along a county road halfway between Chestnut Gap and Lebanon School. The crystals were identified by X-ray diffraction as anatase, suggesting that they are pseudomorphs after titanite
