Beautiful thumbnail specimen of Uranophane from the famous La Creusa locality near Les Marécottes in the Trient Valley of Wallis, Switzerland. Uranophane is a secondary uranium mineral prized by collectors for its delicate crystal habit, vibrant fluorescence under UV light, and association with classic Alpine uranium occurrences.
This specimen is housed in a protective perky-style display box and includes the original locality label from NewBrandMinerals. Swiss uranium localities are highly sought after due to their limited availability and classic European mineral heritage.
A fantastic addition for collectors of radioactive minerals, uranium minerals, Alpine minerals, or fluorescent specimens.
