PostPosted: Dec 17, 2024 09:42    Post subject: Ludjibaite Associations - two unknowns = ?  

Hello, I have two nearly identical specimens of Ludjibaite from the type locality (Ludjiba deposit, near the Ludjiba River, Democratic Republic of the Congo) for which I am trying to identify two unknowns. The first is a white acicular mineral, the other a very fine grained yellowish mineral. Any help much appreciated! I have not been able to find much any English language write-ups about the deposit. Thanks in advance!
