Contribution to the Study of the Radioactive Mineralization of the Kobokobo Pegmatite and Description of a New Radioactive Mineral Species of the Phosphouranylite-Renardite Series [electronic resource] : the Kivuite; CONTRIBUTION A L'ETUDE DE LA MINERALISATION RADIOACTIVE DE LA PEGMATITE DE KOBOKOBO ET DESCRIPTION D'UNE NOUVELLE ESPECE MINERALE RADIOACTIVE DE LA SERIE PHOSPHURANYLITE-RENARDITE.

Combined x-ray diffraction and fluorescence methods were used to discover a new mineral species, kivuite, in these studies of the pegmatite of Kobokobo. The radioactive minerals listed and discussed give an idea of the principal species occurring. Thorium was found associated with U{sup 6+} (curite...
