I went to get some manganese carbonate from my supplier and they don't
carry it any more. I took to the catalogs and don't see it at any of =
the suppliers.
Did I miss something? Is it gone forever?
I already have some tests ready for the next firing, trying varying =
proportions
of manganese dioxide for the couple of glazes that I use it in.
Any help in guessing replacement values would be appreciated, too.
Thanks!

I have bought some from Bath Potters Supply, Steve Mills
email:
You might have to wait a bit longer.
One of the reasons to buy it as it was part of the analysis of wood
ash, I thought might be a part of a substitution.
