The green material here is Voglite, an uncommon U secondary. Sadly, these are very small crystals that are apparent only under magnification. The brown stuff in front is poorly preserved fossilized vegetable matter. 120 K CpM Old material. Adits are closed. S. E. Utah

This unimpressive specimen comes from a small mine, now remediated. Normally, this should have stayed right where it was, as a pretty boring rock. However, it clocks at 172 K CpM with a Ludlum 3 and 44-9 probe. Not bad for something this nasty looking. Old material, S.E. Utah

Old material. No portion of this specimen reads less than 200 K Cpm. The orange color of the Limonite hides much of the yellow Zippeite, which glows with an intense greenish-yellow under 365 nm UV light. The UO2 itself is a thin (1 cm-2 cm) vein running through the entire specimen. Adits are closed, S.E.Utah

Relict Ventilation shaft. Adit is collapsed, 206 K CpM S.E. Utah

Having recently been 'reddit-roboto' censured for including a location name in a posting, no longer will I provide mine names with postings. Do your required homework, and you'll find the workaround.

Old material from a remediated U mine in Utah. Not photogenic, however, somewhat radioactive.

A child of Steven Christoffersen's cross of 'Carlo Arango' x 'Moulin Rouge'. This plant is in its' third week of bloom here in the Sonoran Desert. Thanks Steven! This is a beautiful example of excellent breeding.

There's Sandstone, Malachite, Limonite, Gypsum, Chalcopyrite, and a little UO2. BTW, Utah
