ⓘ Baryte
Formula: BaSO4
ⓘ Calcite
Formula: CaCO3
ⓘ Celestine
Formula: SrSO4
Description: This mineral occurs in masses as large as a man's head composed of inter-grown crystals, the individuals of which are sometimes several inches in length. These masses are found in the layer of rock immediately underlying the one quarried for cement. The crystals seem quite pure and have a white color with irregular areas of pale celestial blue.[[1]]
ⓘ Dolomite
Formula: CaMg(CO3)2
ⓘ Honessite
Formula: (Ni1-xFe3+x)(OH)2[SO4]x/2 · nH2O
ⓘ Marcasite
Formula: FeS2
ⓘ Millerite
