Notes:
For the first time in Slovakia area, phenakite was published from
locality Jesuit forests, but without analyzes. The first scientific work,
where fenakite was analytically confirmed from Slovakia, was published
by Ozdín (2010) from the Sitina Tunnel in Bratislava. |

Notes:
Rose (1833) described from Banská Štiavnica polybasite but as show
presented chemical analyses is concerned pearceite (Sb 0.04 and As 1.79
apfu). On the webpage www.mindat.org is listed of locality
Rochovce with reference Koděra et al. (1986-1990). After reading up this
one I find that polybasite from Rochovce is not mentioned here. |
