What is another word for brockite?
Pronunciation: [bɹˈɒka͡ɪt] (IPA) 
Brockite, a rare mineral, has synonyms that are used less often. These include hagenite, jeidelite, rathite, and wermlandite. Brockite is a radioactive mineral that contains thorium, uranium, and lead which make it challenging to study. Therefore, the mineral specimens of brockite are scarce and valuable to researchers, mineral collectors, and geologists. It was first discovered in Canada and named after William T. Brock who was a mineral collector and dealer. Due to its radioactive properties, brockite is not used in any industrial applications, and its value lies in the scientific and aesthetic fields.
