MCD11CD6: Aggregate of white Shinichengite crystals forming small globular groups covering a rock matrix and accompanied by greenish Andradite crystals. Globular aggregates of cream-colored Bulfonteinite partially cover the specimen as well as very small crystals of Imayoshiite. The Shijiangshan Mine from which the specimen comes is the type locality (TL) for Shinichengite.
The specimen has been analyzed and we will send a copy of the analysis to the buyer. It should be noted that previously Shinichengite had been identified as Tobermorite-Clinotobermorite, without specifying an exact species, since it was not so obvious what species it was.
