Item Description
Englishite is a very rare hydrated phosphate. It is unique to several US localiteis and MINDAT does not list the species from this well-known abandoned uranium mine. Micaeous white crusts and seams of englishite are adjacent to vugs lined with pretty, sparkly green wavellite and variscite in the shale matrix. Ex Joseph Urban and a major rarities collection.
