Henwoodite is a new mineral from West Phoenix Mine, Cornwall. 

 Analysis suggests the formula : — 



2Al,03.P,0,-l-2(iCu0.fH,0)3.P,0, + 5Hp. H=4-4-5; G = 2-67. 

 It occurs in bluish-green or turquoise-blue globular crystalline masses. 

 Enysite is a new mineral froj^a St. Agnes, Cornwall. A-nalyeis cor- 

 responding fairly with the formula 



CuS0,-HCuH^0,+3Al^H,0e-f-12H,0. H=2-2-4; G = l-59. 

 Occurs as a bluish-green stalagmitic crust, probably of recent origin.
