I have tried to do the simulation but i keep getting errors because the non-ideal mineral Chlorite is not found in any of phreeqc database. And this mineral is important for my analysis. Can someone inform me on how to input this mineral in the equilibrium phase block and also the component minerals in the solid solutions. So it will not be showing errors in the output data.
This is my input data, i also included my output data with the errors in it. I would appreciate if someone can help me resolve this errors.
