Ontario Minerals
 
This list of about 560 minerals is based upon the work of J. Satterly (1977) and R.J. Trail (1980), with many additions from a variety of other sources which are listed at the bottom. This is by no means a complete and perfect list. Many minerals need further study; especially the revised groups like the zeolites and the amphiboles. I don't pretend to know it all, so please drop me an email and tell me what I've missed. The quality rankings are not comprehensive; any comments on the killer specimen of xyzite you saw in the museum would be greatly appreciated. Anybody that contributes information or photographs will be credited for their assistance.

Key to the table:

Mineral names in:
CAPS = a valid Ontario mineral
no caps and italicized = valid but needs work to clarify chemistry; or invalid group name
? = a species that I'm not entirely sure of and could use verification.
UNDERLINED = first discovered in Ontario, clicking will take you to the Type Minerals section
photo = click to see a photograph
Quality ratings (Q):
no rankings = it has yet to be ranked, or specimens are insignicant - submicroscopic, massive, poor, etc.
A  = good specimens; at least either good micro crystals or unusually large masses
AA  = very fine or world-class specimens
