Lepidolite substitute?

Hey all,

I came across an old glaze recipe that I am interested in but it call for lepidolite. I can't find it from a retailer and understand the the mining of has stopped long ago. Anyone familiar with it? Anyone know of a substitute/work around? The ^6 recipe is:

Talc 44.5 Lepidolite 54.5 Bentonite 2.0

Thanks much,

Sarah

Lepidolite is a Lithium based Feldspar and is still available in the UK, so I think mining does continue.

If you go into Google and type in Lepidolite you will get a whole lot of information about this Lithium feldspar.

I forgot to put "Clayart" in the search string ;-) My bad. I think I'll make a bookmark for google that starts with "clayart" as the main string. In fact, here is one 'case anyone wants it:
