Crystals similar to Fig. 43 have been found in 
Gouverneur. 
Wayne County. Rose-red and flesh-red crystals, highly modified, although seldom perfect, 
occur in geodes in or near the stratum of lenticular iron ore at Wolcott. 
In addition to the above localities, I may state that heavy spar is almost always found in 
lamina?, in those rounded masses called Septaria. I have already noticed its occurrence in 
this way in Schoharie county. It is also similarly met with near Auburn in Cayuga county, 
Laona in Chautauque county, and Buffalo in Erie county. 
Heavy spar is of very frequent occurrence in the red sandstone near New-Brunswick and 
elsewhere in New-Jersey; and as it is by no means improbable that similar forms will be 
found in the red sandstone on the Hudson, I here insert a few of the forms which I have 
observed in addition to the primary (Fig. 29), which is quite common. These crystals are 
usually small and tabular, and have almost always a white and opaque band around their 
margins. They are associated with calcareous spar, and occur in veins and geodes.
