Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Nepheline, Kentbrooksite
Field of view
10 mm; about 1+ cm wide
Locality
Poudrette quarry (De-Mix quarry; Demix quarry; Uni-Mix quarry; Carrière Mont Saint-Hilaire; MSH), Mont Saint-Hilaire, La Vallée-du-Richelieu RCM, Montérégie, Québec, Canada
Description
Ex Ron Waddell. A closeup of the greenish nepheline is at http://www.mindat.org/photo-170659.html The nepheline is unaltered but the xls are not sharp. The hot pink kentbrooksite xls are small but many are well formed. Updated April 2016 with EDS analysis which shows that kentbrooksite is very likely. Note that, unlike other MSH kentbrooksite photos posted here, which are orange, these crystals are pink. In fact, they look a lot like manganoeudialyte in http://www.mindat.org/photo-279270.html showing once again that color is worse than useless for identification of eudialyte group minerals at MSH.
