Charles Turner has sent me the definition of the mineral Cactolith, which is: "A quasi-horizontal chonolith, composed of anastomising ductoliths, whose distal ends curl like a harpolith, thin like a sphenolith, or bulge discordantly like an akmolith or ethmolith . "

This definition was coined by the US Geological Survey geologist Charles Butler Hunt, as a satirical jab at the absurd geological terms that were proliferating faster than rabbits, and at the many geologists who seemed to be taking themselves too seriously .

He later went on to publish the books "How to collect Mountains" and "Dating mining camps with tin cans and bottles" . [Ref: C . B . Hunt, Geology and geography of the Henry Mountains region, Utah, 1953] .
