Detailed Mineral List:

ⓘCalcite
Formula:CaCO3
ⓘ'Calcium Amphibole Subgroup'
Formula:AnCa2(Z2+5-mZ3+m)(Si8-(n+m)Al(n+m))(OH,F,Cl)2
Description: Sadashivajah, M.S., and Naganna, C. (1964) published the amphibole from Jothvad Hill as winchite. Their analysis show some anomalies, as Ʃ(Si+Al)< 8, ƩC position<5 and ƩA position >1. Based on a high Ca content it is likely that the amphibole analysed by Sathe et. al (1965) belongs to the Calcium Amphibole Subgroup.
ⓘDiopside
Formula:CaMgSi2O6
ⓘGrossular
Formula:Ca3Al2(SiO4)3
ⓘQuartz
Formula:SiO2
ⓘWinchite
Formula:◻{CaNa}{Mg4Al}(Si8O22)(OH)2
Description: The identification of winchite from the Goldongri Mine was based on a general consensus at the time that all violet amphiboles from the Indian metamorphic manganese ores (gondites) was winchite. Later microprobe analyses show a variety of compositions, mostly corresponding to magnesio-arfvedsonite.
ⓘWollastonite
Formula:Ca3(Si3O9)
Habit: Stellate groups
