Abstract:
The first British occurrence of ferrisurite, a structurally complex mineral in which smectite-like layers are intergrown with lead carbonate layers, is reported from Whyte’s Cleuch, Wanlockhead, Dumfries and Galloway. Ferrisurite is the fifth lead-bearing silicate mineral recorded from Leadhills-Wanlockhead. A comparison with similar worldwide localities suggests other unusual lead silicates remain to be discovered in the area
