Autunite : Ca(UO2)2(PO4)2·11H2O

Apex Mine (Rundberg mine; Early Day mine), Reese River District, Lander Co., Nevada, USA

These delicate crystals easily wash off the matrix. Even more disastrous is the use of compressed air for blowing off dust which launches the crystals into outer space. Photomicrograph © Saul Krotki 2004 (.0603.1). Field of view 2.7 mm wide. Krotki Micromount Collection.
