Zincochromite : ZnCr2O4, Roscoelite : K(V,Al)2[(OH)2|AlSi3O10], Clausthalite : PbSe

Srednyaya Padma U-V deposit, Zaonezhie peninsula, Lake Onega, Karelia Republic, Northern Region, Russia

The largest which I'd saw from the locality roscoelite segregation filled with rich impregnation zincochromite microcrystals (up to 60 wol.%). Metallic-white grains of clausthalite are well visible. Specimen size is 6x4x4 cm and its radioactivity is 260 μR/h. Collected by Nadezhda Ledneva in 1990. Pavel M. Kartashov collection and photo.
