This is a combination of the minerals in "Dana's Handbook of
Mineralogy", available from
this web site,
and a hierarchical arrangement of mineral names used in the USGS deposit
type descriptions. The two need to be integrated by slotting all
Dana's minerals into a geologically useful hierarchical classification,
but using them side-by-side in the MineMatch system until such an
integration is completed does not cause any problems.
