Mapping in central Kazakhstan -- I laughed out loud, having worked there in the mid 90s when things started opening up. For the sake of your liver, I hope that the culture has changed in the intervening decades!

Great info thanks. I'm not very familiar with alunite... I think I'm mis identifying it historically it is recorded in mullock at Donnybrook

It is pretty tricky, particularly if it's fine grained. If you see a rock that looks like beige coloured marble in a system with lots of clay silica and pyrite, it should trigger suspicion.

If you can see good crystals, alunite is distictly tabular and occasionally in slightly radiating groups. Feldspar crystals are more blocky. Salmon pink could also be rhodochrosire in intermediate sulphidation epithermals.

@@GeologyUpSkill I'll look out for MnCO4 thanks ....hardware store HCl is my best friend and makes the UV phosphorescent calcite easy to spot... Fluids came up between felsic gneiss and ultramafic-amphibolite which was already hosting orogenic pegmatites. Cool Epithermal Muscovite and tourmaline pseudomorphs...
