The mineral here described was at first considered to be an iron-rich variety of turquoise and was described by myself as such when this paper was read before the Society in 1937. At that time only a partial analysis had been made; since then Dr. J. A. Smythe of King's College, Newcastle-upon-Tyne, has most kindly undertaken at my instigation careful analyses of the mineral from both of its localities, Bunny mine, St. Austell, and Castle-an-Dinas wolfram mine, St. Columb Major. As a result of these two analyses, which are in close agreement, it is evident that the mineral is a new one, intermediate between turquoise and the two minerals chalcosiderite and andrewsite, and forming a middle member of what is probably an isomorphous group.
