Kogarkoite is a sodium sulfate fluoride mineral with formula Na3(SO4)F. It has a pale blue color. The specific gravity is about 2.67 and the hardness is 3.5. The crystall system is monoclinic. Kogarkoite is named after the Russian petrologist Lia Nikolaevna Kogarko (born 1936) who discovered the mineral.

Domeykite is a copper arsenide mineral, Cu3As. It crystallizes in the isometric system, although crystals are very rare. It typically forms as irregular masses or botryoidal forms. It is an opaque, white to gray (weathers brassy) metallic mineral with a Mohs hardness of 3 to 3.5 and a specific gravity of 7.2 to 8.1

Marrite (mar'-ite) is depicted by the chemical formula PbAgAsS3. It is the arsenic equivalent of mineral freieslebenite (PbAgSbS3), but also displays close polyhedral characteristics with sicherite and diaphorite. Marrite was named in honor of geologist John Edward Marr (1857-1933) of Cambridge, England.

Arfvedsonite is a sodium amphibole mineral with composition: (Na)(Na2)((Fe2+)4Fe3+)((OH)2

Barytocalcite is an anhydrous barium calcium carbonate mineral with the chemical formula Ba Ca(C O3)2. It is trimorphous with alstonite and paralstonite, that is to say the three minerals have the same formula but different structures. Baryte and quartz pseudomorphs after barytocalcite have been observed.

Polycrase or polycrase-(Y) is a black or brown metallic complex uranium yttrium oxide mineral with formula: (Y,Ca,Ce,U,Th)(Ti,Nb,Ta)2O6. It is amorphous. It has a Mohs hardness of 5 to 6 and a specific gravity of 5. It is radioactive due to its uranium content (around 6%). It occurs in granitic pegmatites.

Almarudite is an extremely rare alkaline manganese beryllium silicate mineral of the cyclosilicates (ring silicates) class, with formula written as K((),Na)2(Mn2+,Fe2+,Mg)2(Be,Al)3(Si12O30), from the volcanic environment of the Eifel Mountains, Germany.

Hematite, also spelled as haematite, is the mineral form of iron(III) oxide (Fe2O3), one of several iron oxides. Hematite crystallizes in the rhombohedral system, and it has the same crystal structure as ilmenite and corundum. Hematite and ilmenite form a complete solid solution at temperatures above 950 °C.

Troilite is a rare iron sulfide mineral with the simple formula of FeS. It is the iron rich endmember of the pyrrhotite group. Pyrrhotite has the formula Fe(1-x)S (x = 0 to 0.2) which is iron deficient. As troilite lacks the iron deficiency which gives pyrrhotite its characteristic magnetism, troilite is non-magnetic.

Native copper is an uncombined form of copper which occurs as a natural mineral. Copper is one of the few metallic elements to occur in native form, although it most commonly occurs in oxidized states and mixed with other elements. Native copper was an important ore of copper in historic times and was used by pre-historic peoples.
