About: Ellsworthite

An Entity of Type: mineral, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Uranpyrochlore (of Hogarth 1977), also known as ellsworthite or betafite (Ca,U)2(Ti,Nb,Ta)2O6(OH) is a rare earth mineral mostly found in the northern parts of North America. It is a uranpyrochlore and is named after Hardy V. Ellsworth of the Canadian Geological Survey by Walker and Parsons. It is a very uranium- and thorium- rich mineral, which in fact makes it slightly radioactive. Uranium makes up about 17.1% of the mineral. Ellsworthite is also known as the mineral Betafite. Ellsworthite is a thorium-bearing mineral that is found mostly in Canada and Alaska. It was first discovered in Hybla, Ontario, which is now a ghost town.
