LIST OF MINERALS N-R (COMPLETE)

It is currently not possible to have a '"complete list of minerals"'. The International Mineralogical Association is the international group that recognises new minerals and new mineral names, however minerals discovered before 1959 did not go through the official naming procedure, although some minerals published previously have been either confirmed or discredited since that date. This list contains a mixture of mineral names that have been approved since 1959 and those mineral names believed to still refer to valid mineral species (these are called "grandfathered" species).
The list is divided into alphabetical groups: A-B - C-E - F-J - K-M - 'N-R' - S-T - U-Z
The data was exported from mindat.org on April 29, 2005.
The minerals are sorted by name. The first link is to mindat.org, and the second link is to webmineral.com.
