Ankerite (Likely Ferroan Dolomite**)
Locality: Butte Mining District, Silver Bow County, Montana, USA
**Note on mineral species: Initially labeled "Ankerite", many specimens historically labeled as "ankerite" are now classified as ferroan dolomite following revisions to mineral nomenclature. Without analytical testing, it is often difficult to distinguish between the two, and many reported occurrences of ankerite likely represent iron-rich dolomite rather than true ankerite.
Dimensions: 4.1 x 2.5 x 2.9 cm
