Uranium Specimens in storage at the AMNH

On the right is a 60 kg specimen of Uraninite with Schoepite from Pick’s Delta Mine, San Rafael Swell Mining District, Emery County, Utah, USA.  It is the same specimen shown in the earlier picture which featured Dr. Brian H. Mason. Just look again at that deliciously thick layer of Schoepite with some Uraninite just visible in the lower right hand corner – superb!

On the left is a 15 kg specimen of Uraninite with Schoepite from the Lookout No. 22 claim, Marshall Pass, Saguache County, Colorado, USA. Both specimens are now in storage at the AMNH (Photo courtesy of AMNH) (Author: silvia)
