Description
Sabugalite crystals in yellow laths on Phosphuranylite (uranyl phosphate), two rare uraniferous and therefore radioactive mineral species, deposited on the typical gangue of the deposit.
The color is extremely strong ranging from very light yellow to pale green, through orange.
Large specimen for the locality. It comes from the Margnac mine in Compreignac in Haute-Vienne (Limousin), France.
From the mineralogical collection of Eric Asselborn.
This is a very exceptional specimen of the Uranium family, of world level.
