Summary

A phonolite dyke at Mount Goonneringerringgi, south-eastern Queensland, carries prominent pink specks of eudialyte, together with manganoan pectolite (ranging to calcian serandite), aegirine, albite, arfvedsonite, nepheline, natrolite, and analcime. This is the first confirmed occurrence of eudialyte in Australia
