Formula:
~(Ce,Ca,K,Na,Ba)Pb2(Fe,Al,Mn,Zn)(Nb,Ti,Zr,Th,U)5(SiO2)6(CO2)9(F,OH,O)
the Si and C representations in the formula are likely erroneous or stand for some kind of a simplification; possibly a silico-carbonate
Co-described with UM1996-40-SiO:BaFFeHKNaTi.
Probably metamict, optically resembling a pyrochlore group species; an inclusion in perthite, ~ 20 x 25 microns in size.
With quartz, fluorite, pyrochlore, feldspars; a Li-bearing mineral (polylithionite or neptunite); and yet another unnamed species (included in narsarsukite) not reported by Smith & Nickel (2007/2012).
