Hi Volkmar,
Are you sure it’s from Puiva? It looks like Dalnegorsk...
Regards

Hello Jordi,
the old label says "Puiva"?. After comparing pictures from both occurrences, I think, you are right, that this axinite is from Dalnegorsk!
Could you please change it, or can I do it myself?
Best regards,
Volkmar

Done.
As from Dalnegorsk, it should be an Axinite-(Mn), so I changed it accordingly.
Thanks for the confidence.

From the sources I found, there is no mine named “Capricornio” recorded in the Cachiyuyo de Llampos district. The commonly noted mines and sub-areas include Cachiyuyo de Oro, San Samuel (also known as San Manuel), Dulcinea de Llampos, among others...
Mineral Atlas mentions a “Capricornio Lagerstätte” but identifies it with the Caracoles region, not Cachiyuyo de Llampos
Interestingly, another source refers to a “Capricorni Mine, Cachiyuyo de Oro”—which is part of the broader Cachiyuyo region but not specifically in the Llampos sector.
Could you help?
