Len Buchanan
Monika spoke to the group about a new Mont Saint-Hilaire mineral until recently referred to as UK79 and now named Steedeite, in honour of our very own Tony Steede in recognition of his contributions to understanding the mineralogy of Mont Saint-Hilaire (MSH). She described her work in analyzing UK79 in Winnipeg where she travels approximately twice annually to access the specialized equipment needed for the analysis.
She also touched on UK78 and UK80, which she is currently working on.
