Abstract
Barite pseudomorphs after lenticular gypsum in a buried soil from cent ral Australia are composed of loosely arranged platy crystals. These f eatures were most probably formed by direct alteration with barium-ric h solutions. The possible sources of the barium-rich solutions are bri efly discussed.
