#6 From Bright Pebble's source:

The only economically important source mineral for caesium is pollucite Cs(AlSi2O6), which is found in a few places around the world in zoned pegmatites, and is associated with the more commercially important lithium minerals lepidolite and petalite... The Bikita pegmatite deposit in Zimbabwe is mined for its petalite but it also contains a significant amount of pollucite.
