Calcite. — Biichan!!!. In crystallized veins in limestone; 

 also stalactitic in caves. Clear radiating crystals can be 

 obtained. Wombat Creek! !!, associated with g-alenite. 

 Limestone caves at Bindi!!!. As marble, Bindi!!!.

 left by dissolved fossils. As dog-tooth spar on dissolved

 felspar is very abundant the dyke has decomposed and 

 may be shovelled out. Lumps of oxide up to one 

 liundred- weight have been obtained, yielding 73 per 

 cent. metaUic tin. Lodes occur every few hundred 

 yards over many square miles. Country — metamorphic
