Arsenuranospathite : HAl(UO2)4(AsO4)4·40H2O, Betpakdalite : {Mg(H2O)6}Ca2(H2O)13[Mo6+8As5+2Fe3+3O36(OH)](H2O)4

Bota-Burum U deposit, Alakol' Lake, Chu-Ili Mts, Balqash (Balkhash; Karatas; Prebalkhashie) Region, Zhezqazghan Oblysy (Dzezkazgan Oblast'; Dzhezkazgan Oblast'; Djezkazgan Oblast'; Jezkazgan Oblast'), Kazakhstan

As show analyses this uranium mica rosettes are composed by arsenuranospathite. Associated minerals are sulphur-yellow crystalline betpakdalite (first find on the locality) and green cubic fluorite-like crystals of pharmakosiderite. Specimen size is 7.5x4x2 cm and its radioactivity is 145 μR/h. Ex L.N. Belova specimen. Pavel M. Kartashov ...

Bertrandite : Be4[(OH)2|Si2O7], Rhodochrosite : MnCO3

Kounrad Massif, Balqash (Balkhash; Karatas; Prebalkhashie) Region, Zhezqazghan Oblysy (Dzezkazgan Oblast'; Dzhezkazgan Oblast'; Djezkazgan Oblast'; Jezkazgan Oblast'), Kazakhstan

This is a superb piece in every way - both for quality of the large bertrandite crystals and for their aesthetic arrangement on matrix. It is quite a significant piece, even aside from pedigree. 4.7 x 2.7 x 2.6 cm
