Species: CHILDRENITE-EOSPHORITE Locality: Chickering Mine, Walpole, NH Specimen Size: 3 mm lustrous radial spray of clear childrenite-eosphorite crystals on siderite matrix. Field Collected: Peter Cristofono (2010) Catalog No.: Notes: The EDS analysis of this specimen showed that it is slightly on the Childrenite side of the childrenite-eosphorite series. The manganese content must be grater than the iron content for the specimen to fall on the eosphorite side of the childrenite-eosphorite series. The analysis of several Chickering Mine childrenite-eosphorite specimens has yet to yield a sample that falls on the eosphorite side of the series. This was the first clear example that was analyzed. The previously analyzed ones were pale yellow. |
