nepheline
Unless there is a crosser both should be allowed.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nepheline
They're equally valid, either should be acceptable. Chambers & Collins both give 'nepheliNe' 1st, with 'nepheliTe' as an alt. sp.
Question Author
Thank you both, there is no crosser and I agree, after consulting the dictionary, that both should be accepted but one never knows!
Go with the first listed.
Question Author
That's what I have done. Thanks again for all the advice.
