β Gugiaite ? Formula: Ca2Be[Si2O7] Description: Collected in the early 1980s and identified as leucophanite, but recent studies at the Oslo University Mineralogical Museum have identified the mineral as gugiaite. But hydroxyl was not determined and as with other previously analyzed gugiaites, it could be the newly described mineral hydroxylgugiaite, Knut Eldjarn comment in caption on photo-58820, mars 2017.
