Inderite, Ulexite

Locality: U.S. Borax open pit (Boron pit), U.S. Borax Mine (Pacific West Coast Borax; Pacific Coast Borax Co.; Boron Mine; U.S. Borax and Chemical Corp.; Kramer Mine; Baker Mine), Kramer Borate deposit, Boron, Kramer District, Kern Co., California, USA

Inderite and Ulexite. R. Currier collection. The scale at the bottom of the image is an inch with a rule at one cm. When the Inderite crystals were found at Boron, they were white/transparent. After a few years in the air of the Los Angeles basin, they turn white on their surface. The white mineral can be removed by soaking them in water for a few minutes.
