Matacuite.—New Mount Hope, Nymagee, Great Barrier Copper 
Mine, Gorilambone; common in copper lodes of the 
colony ; (Geo. Sur., Dept. Mines, Sydney). 
Manaanire.—Bendemeer ! ! !, Glanmire, near Bathurst !! !, Bogan 
District, Molong ; (Geo. Sur., Dept. of Mines, Sydney). 
Marmouite—This foliated variety of serpentine occurs with 
massive serpentine on Jones’ Creek, Gundagai (L.). 
Mo.tyspENItTe.—Found with cobaltine and erythrite at Carcoar 
in fairly well deve loped platy crystals (L.). 
Monranite.*—Molongo, near Captain’s Flat. (1) Pale greenish 
yellow variety. This mineral encrusts the tetradymite, 
and does not show any crystalline structure. Green 
tints are observable wherever the particles of half- 
decomposed tetradymite become abundant, the green 
being due to the steel-grey tetradymite showing through 
the yellow coating of montanite. (2) Ferruginous dark- 
brownish red variety. This variety occurs in cubical 
pseudomorphs, single or aggregated, and about yinch 
in diameter. The colour is dark brownish red, excepting 
on thin edges, where the mineral is semi-translucent and 
of a deep claret colour. Analysis of a few broken 
pieces of the cubes (b) about 2 grammes in weight, 
though they were not thoroughly free from tetrady- 
mite :—
