F26RE8: Dissakisite-(Ce) on Dolomite
The mineralogical literature is not clear if we are dealing with Dissakisite-(Ce) or Allanite-(Ce). Both species are the end species of an isomorphic range and most of the samples from Trimouns present colored zones where the darker ones correspond with Allanite-(Ce) (as it is richer in iron) and the lighter areas are Dissakisite-(Ce) We have not analyzed this sample but the uniform color, and especially it lightness, indicate that it is poor in iron so we guess that it is Dissakisite-(Ce)
