Tiny colorless micro crystals in a vug unseen in the photos, but visible under the microscope. Pachnolite usually occurs in pegmatites with a fluorine component most notably but not limited to Ivigtut. Such pegmatites often contain fluorite, fluellite, prosopite, topaz, cryolite, ralstonite and other alkali aluminum fluoride granitic bodies which are peraluminous and usually in "NYF" (niobium-yttrium-fluoride) evolved and fractionated pegmatites. In this case Gjerdingselva is not a pematite but is alkali (soda) rich in flourine.

Peisleyite, pronounced peez'-lee-ite, is a one-locality mineral found only at Tom's quarry since 1982. It is a dull, white, chalky massive piece. It has yet to be found in distinct crystals. Please see the prov. tab for a scan of the signed label.
From Mindat: "Peisleyite was named in 1982 in honor of Vincent Peisley (b. 1941, died 6 May 2021), mineral collector from Brahma Lodge, Australia who collected the first specimens.
