Kosmatite is a mineral, which may also be known as komatiite.[1] It occurs at least in North Macedonia. It may or may not contain clintonite or margarite.[2] Near the city of Prilep in the marble series of the Pelagonian Metamorphic Complex the Sivec quarry provides white dolomite marble; within this matrix can be found some very rare silicates including phlogopite, cyrnrite and kosmatite.[3]
