| Abstract/Notes | This new mineral was first found by a miner named Cann in 1903 or 1904 on the 480-foot level of the Bultfontein mine at Kimberley. It occurred, associated with calcite, apophyllite, and natrolite, in a large ‘horse’ of dolerite and shale fragments enclosed in kimberlite. This huge inclusion, several hundred feet in height, undoubtedly formed part of the country-rock that now encloses the kimberlite pipe. The Specimens of the new mineral were considered to be natrolite and were presented to Mr. A. F. Williams. Several years later the same mineral was found by Mr. C. E. Adams in the Dutoitspan mine, which is located about half a mile from the Bultfontein mine; he presented his specimens to the MacGregor Museum at Kimberley. Recently, Mr. Miller, Underground Manager of the Jagersfontein mine in Orange River Colony, discovered the new mineral in that mine, which is located 100 miles south-east of Kimberley. |
