Mindat.org is a non-commercial interactive online database covering minerals around the world. Originally created by Jolyon Ralph as a private project in 1993, it was launched as a community-editable website in October 2000.
The data was exported from mindat.org on 29 April 2005; updated up to 'IMA2021'. The minerals are sorted by name, followed by the structural group ( rruff.info/ima and ima-cnmnc by mineralienatlas.de, mainly ) or chemical class ( mindat.org and basics ), the year of publication (if it's before of an IMA approval procedure), the IMA approval and ...

Barytocalcite is an anhydrous barium calcium carbonate mineral with the chemical formula Ba Ca(C O 3) 2.It is trimorphous with alstonite and paralstonite, that is to say the three minerals have the same formula but different structures. [3]
In the mine at this location, Gottlobite is found in hydrothermal veins of barite that are cutting through conglomerate. The crystals of gottlobite can be found embedded in these barite veins or as stand-alone crystals on surrounding minerals. The associated minerals in the area are hausmannite, barite, vanadian adelite, and muscovite. [4]
Siderite is commonly found in hydrothermal veins, and is associated with barite, fluorite, galena, and others. It is also a common diagenetic mineral in shales and sandstones, where it sometimes forms concretions, which can encase three-dimensionally preserved fossils. [6]
