Abstract
Several years ago in the course of feldspar mining at a quarry at the base of Noyes Mountain in Greenwood, Maine, a mineral supposed to be spodumene was found in quantity and about eight tons of it were taken to the grinding mill at West Paris, Maine. There it lay in a bin for a year or more before it was examined by the late W. D. Nevel of Andover, Maine, who identified the mineral as petalite. He sorted out the petalite and the rejects were sacked and retained until the summer of 1937.
