Material was selected to represent all of the varieties of pyromorphite which have been described by earlier workers as occurring in the deposit. Aside from minor Ca2+ substitution for Pb2+ and occasionally VO/\" for PO/\", all specimens examined proved to be either pure end-member pyromorphite or arsenian pyromorphite with a maximum arsenate content corresponding to pyr2.1mimo.9' In one specimen phosphate-arsenate zoning is evident; minor vanadate is present in the more arsenian material. Calcium-lead zoning has been detected in a pale grey-coloured specimen. These zoning patterns indicate chemical variations in aqueous solution during crystal growth. The arsenate contents appear to be directly related to the original distribution of the primary arsenides and arsenic-bearing sulfosalts. The compositions have been related to those of the solutions from which they crystallised. Apatite is a major accessory in the primary ore and this would provide the requisite phosphate ions.","PeriodicalId":371360,"journal":{"name":"Records of The Australian Museum, Supplement","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1992-10-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131212604","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although coming from a position as Curator of a large museum in Bristol, he had wide experience of coal and metal mining and field geology. As a young man he had spent the years 1825 to 1827 in the Pacific, including several months in the Sydney region. In a period of less than five years, under extremely difficult conditions, he mapped an area of some 80,000 km2 of eastern Australia, extending from Sydney as far north as Gladstone. His work is buried in official reports and in his journals. Although well regarded by the common miners and landholders, who asked for his assistance, his work was undermined to some extent by the lack of appreciation by officials, and by ill informed press statements. Stutchbury's relations with the Australian Museum were strained for a time by accusations that he was giving them poor specimens, while collecting material to sell in Britain, a matter which he vehemently denied. His collections were displayed in the Museum to enthusiastic crowds in 1855, but they seem to have since vanished. However, the list of his minerals was found at the Museum in 1907, and provoked some interest. Much earlier, some of the minerals collected by Stutchbury and the accompanying documentation attracted the attention of John Calvert, who passed the materials off as his own to show his knowledge of the Australian mining scene, and probably to support his dubious mining ventures.","PeriodicalId":371360,"journal":{"name":"Records of The Australian Museum, Supplement","volume":"41 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1992-10-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127675846","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The zeolites present (chabazite, phillipsite and natrolite) are those characteristic of a silica-undersaturated (alkaline) environment. Associated secondary minerals include radiate globular saponite, calcite and aragonite. The calcite is present in a number of different habits, each showing a different response to ultraviolet light and the aragonite also shows a diverse range in morphology. Zonal distribution of the zeolite species is pronounced with the zoning centred around what appear to have been hydrothermal spring conduits. Two distinct episodes of mineralisation are evident, an early deuteric suite formed during initial cooling of the basalt and a later suite (including chabazite and radiate globular saponite) deposited by a further influx of hydrothermal fluids associated with subsequent proximal hot spring activity. The basalt at this locality has undergone extensive hydrothermal alteration. ENGLAND, B.M., 1992. Zeolites from a new locality at Ben Lomond, New England Region, New South Wales. Records of the Australian Museum Supplement 15: 55-72. 55 A small quarry (Fig. I) beside the New England Highway 28 km north of Guyra, excavated during road reconstruction in 1987, has intersected an extensively altered vesicular Tertiary basalt. Vesicles exposed in the quarry face reach 15 cm across and are lined principally with chabazite showing a variety of multiply-twinned (phacolite) habits. Other minerals present at the locality but not always directly associated with the chabazite include saponite (smectite group), aragonite, phillipsite, natrolite and calcite. Crystal size is generally quite small (less than 2 mm), although chabazite crystals to 1.5 cm diameter have been observed. The larger crystals tend to occur in the smaller vesicles. The locality displays a number of unusual features including at least two episodes of mineralisation and diverse aragonite and calcite morphologies, the latter showing an equally diverse range of responses to ultraviolet light. The small size of many of the crystals and the various combinations of species present make this one of the finest localities in Australia for zeolite micromounts. Due to extensive alteration the basalt is unusually brittle, making the collection and trimming of' specimens easy.","PeriodicalId":371360,"journal":{"name":"Records of The Australian Museum, Supplement","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1992-10-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123676194","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
