| ✪ Autunite Formula: Ca(UO2)2(PO4)2 · 10-12H2O Description: The mine was opened in a futile search for aquamarine, but several dozen nice specimens of autunite crystals up to 1 inch were uncovered instead. Some of these autunite crystals were on matrix associated with mica crystals. A specimen in the Smithsonian Institute consists of a small cluster of autunite crystals off matrix that has a 3.5 cm crystal. |
