List of individual mineral mixtures

The list of mineral mixtures is an alphabetically arranged overview of individually named mineral mixtures, some of which were formerly considered to be minerals and others are sometimes viewed as rocks or in the broadest sense related to them.

Systematic lists of only recognized mineral types and their classifications can be found on the Systematics of Minerals page .

Independently of this, there is also an alphabetical list of minerals with names, recognized mineral types, synonyms and mining terms, as well as a list of rocks . For fictitious minerals see the list of invented elements, materials, isotopes and elementary particles .
