Important Update News
The RRUFF Project is being updated to improve its interface and content. The beta version of the update is accessible to the public at RRUFF.net. New data is only being added to the beta site. Please note that it is in development, and some components are not functional. Existing RRUFF.info links will resolve to the new site after RRUFF.net is officially released.
We are grateful to NASA for the funding of this effort.

Giersdorf_00000991 | Uranium vein-type deposits located in the Otish Mountains basin (Quebec) are associated with strongly albitized doleritic dykes and sills. Two periods of mineralization were recognized. The first, contemporaneous with the albitization, consists of brannerite and uraninite. The second, separated from the previous by tectonic movements, is characterized by carbonate gangue (dolomite), and a complex association of selenides, tellurides and sulfides including: skippenite, watkinsonite, poubaite, soucekite, clausthalite, aikinite, wittichenite, molybdenite, pyrite, chalcopyrite, galena, digenite, covellite, electrum, native bismuth, and several unidentified bismuth selenides-tellurides. |
