Abstract
The ejected blocks found in the 'peperino' of the Alban Hills have long attracted the attention of mineralogists on account of their variety in content of well-crystallized minerals. It may be recalled that this Roman region provides the earliest and finest examples of the white octahedral haiiyne, at first referred to a separate species (berzeline), and that this mineral with leueite, yellow garnet, wollastonite, green clino-pyroxene, and melilite form characteristic assemblages in the tufts from Albano, Frascati, and other places.
