Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Riebeckite, Calcite, Dolomite, Donnayite Group (FOV ~ 4.5 cm wide)
Locality: Poudrette quarry (Demix quarry; Uni-Mix quarry; Desourdy quarry), Mont Saint-Hilaire, Rouville RCM, Montérégie, Québec, Canada
Original description: FOV ~ 4.5 cm wide. Found 1996. This is from hornfels and MSH collectors call it "riebeckite" - but it has not been analyzed.
This material is found abundantly but infrequently. It may be "under collected" because it's rather ugly when wet and muddy - as if often the case. But when cleaned up, the blue color is quite attractive. There are some very small calcite "cones" and translucent dolomite rhombs (esp top). There are also quite a few gray donnayite group "pagodas" with white caps. Likely these are ewaldite with donnayite-(Y). In any case, they are too small to make out in the photo.
