A suite of samples with eudialyte and eudialyte decomposition minerals from the kakortokite and associated pegmatites of the Ilimaussaq complex in South Greenland has been investigated by electron microprobe analysis. Extensive decomposition of eudialyte has resulted in the formation of catapleiite...
