composition assigned to it is H2Mns(SiOs)4+H20. It appears to be a<br />

zeolite.<br />

Argentopercylite. (Chem.-Zeit. 1892, X~I, 1952.) The same<br />

as boleite.<br />

2~rzrunite. A. Dannenberg, Zr Kryst. Min. 1899, XXX[, 230;<br />

Abstr. Min. Mug. XII, 308. A bright blue-green crystalline crust.<br />

is given as an alternative name.<br />

Barytheulandit. Nez~es Jahrb. Min. 1898, I, Ref. 447. The<br />
