Zeunerite with Uraninite
Le Temple, Marsac-de-Livradois, Puy-de-Dome, Auvergne, France
10.4cm x 10cm x 5cm
Ex. Jean Chervet Collection
Ex. Sorbonne Museum
Description/Interesting Notes:
A rare, old time example of zeunerite and uraninite from this seldom referenced French locale!!! This
specimen consists of a dense mass of oolitic uraninite that shows extensive alteration to
pale green zeunerite richly distributed throughout a quartz matrix!!! Upon close inspection one can see
numerous significant areas of darkly colored uraninite that exhibit botryoidal and oolitic forms
scattered throughout the matrix intergrown pale green zeunerite exhibiting identical forms!!! This is OLD
material from the Sorbonne Museum in France and retains an old label with Jean Chervet Collection notation as well!!! This
specimen is quite hefty and significant - very rich uranium bearing ore!!!
The pics hardly do it justice!!! Must be seen in person to be fully appreciated!!!
Good luck and be sure to check out my other exciting mineral auctions on ebay!!!
