Fergusonite-(Y), Feldspar Biotite
Ytterby, Vaxholm, Sweden
FoV: 4 x 4 cm
One more ugly mineral that nevertheless is exciting.
First the exotic formula, it is a niobate of yttrium (YNbO4)
Then the locality is hardcore: It is a historical Swedish quarry that has delivered material for the discovery of 10 different rare earth elements - four of which have names derived directly from the place itself: Yttrium, Terbium, Erbium, Ytterbium
