presence in cavities of a lot of octahedral fluorite crystals a few millimeters in size. Fig. 35 GALENA (8 cm sp) Fig. 36 STIBNITE (9 cm sp) Mátraszentimre Mátraszentimre In the Miocene andésites of the Mátra a number of different hy­drothermal, and autopneumatolitic mineral assemblages were encoun­tered. These associations may be divided into three groups: the first group consists of rock-forming minerals deposited on the walls of the cavities; in the second group the cavities are filled largely with varie­ties of quartz and opal, and with carbonate minerals. The carbonates, in particular, calcite, aragonite and siderite, abound in the quarry at Kis­nána and in the andésite at Csákány-kő Hill near Recsk. The hyalite, coloured green by nontronite and celadonite, is the most common form of opal and is usually associated with chalcedony. The third group con-
