" Your photo might not be the minerals you said it is"
"That's a killer fergusonite, but how do you know it is Y dominant? It looks
like β-Fergusonite. Thanks for posting it."
I also approved your rich sperrylite. I'll bump it up from where Uwe told you to look.

I notice that only the J G Gole quarry locates both Fergusonite-(Ce) and Fergusonite-(Y) there and I wonder why all the posted photos are labelled Fergusonite-(Y)? Have they all been analysed? Are only the big ones Y ?

Thanks Richard. I'm glad you were watching.
On the contrary Peter at least I learned something and a locality got a little cleaner. If you are in doubt about a locality, you can post a photo on the "identity" board and receive the combined wisdom of the community.;-)
