mollusque Sly use of "oh the humanity", Wordplayer! Feb 19, 2011
Wordplayer How did you forget tourmaline? It's a common mineral!
Oh no..it's invalid...oh the humanity! Feb 19, 2011
hernesheir Yes, well. You've uncovered another of my "personal conventions" in the mineral lists, moll. For those names that end in a hyphen followed by the periodic table symbol of an element, I listed only the "generic" (my usage) part of the name and left the hyphenated part off.
I'd list burovaite.
You're finding that there are tons more mineral names to mine and sift through for eu(ry)vocalics, no? And decisions to be made on if/how to list them. Jun 16, 2010
mollusque Referring to your comment on my profile, brumadoite (valid) and saukovite added. What to do about burovaite, which seems to have appeared only as "burovaite-Ca"? I guess that means they expect another variety to be discovered with a different element in the Ca slot. Jun 16, 2010
mollusque How are you handling synonyms, hernesheir? I checked on a list of approved mineral names and found sulphohalite, but not sulfohalite, so the latter is an unofficial synonym. The list also has saukovite as a synonym of metacinnabar, so I guess that's an official synonym. Does either synonym qualify for your list?
Edit: just saw that you addressed sulfohalite already on my profile. Jun 16, 2010
hernesheir Thanks mollusque. Compiling these list has been an excellent and informative obsession. I will check the spellings of the questionable entries and tags of this large list - I tried to check and double check the names and tags as I entered them; errors were bound to creep in and I take responsibility for them. Thanks again for your appreciated kudos. You're a true Word-(mensch)-nik! Jun 16, 2010
mollusque Fabulous list, hernesheir! I'm happy to have inspired such an excellent obsession. I've added a bunch to my panvocalic and euryvocalic lists, putting the former over 2500 words. And tellurantimony makes the 240th euryvocalic vowel pattern, so one third of all possible ones have now been found!
Hard as may be to believe, none of my panvocalic listings are coinages: they all appear in print somewhere. Note that dusmantovite and suaconite are misspellings, and check your tags for plumbonacrite. Is sulphohalite an official name? If so, I'll change my listing from sulfohalite. Jun 16, 2010
hernesheir Thanks ruzuzu. Inspired of course by mollusque and sionnach. Jun 5, 2010
ruzuzu Cool list! Jun 5, 2010
