I have several friends that were responsible for finding many of the recent new minerals from here. They are serious amateur collects with the good fortune to have working associations with a number of mineralogists, thus enabling them to get the necessary analytical work done to describe new species.

That's great - lucky friends! I got mine from Michael Shannon in one of their "micro-bags," great fun to explore even if not in the real place.

Cool pictures and great descriptions. I wasn't aware the US imported so much uranium!
