Round 1, Match 2 of #MinCup24: Arsenuranospathite against Corundum
Arsenuranospathite is:
- totally obscure
- a pronunciation nightmare for lecturers everywhere
- contains arsenic *and* uranium
- a hydrated secondary mineral that apparently *loses* water on exposure.
Obviously has my vote.

ROTD #Mincup23 matchup isn't easy to spell. #Arsenuranospathite versus #Neptunite dark and mysterious versus absolutely deadly poisonous.
I'm going with #Arsenuranospathite as it is poison, and I'm team poison.
Arsenic versus black lace. God it's heating up.

Our lovely friend, #Arsenuranospathite is a 2 on the Moh's scale of hardness. So it is softer than your fingernail, and is as hard as gypsum. 6 out of 9 doctors do not recommend using Arsenuranospathite to form the walls of your house, but those 3 doctors are the fun ones.

Day 2 of #MinCup24 : a tricky one. Arsenuranospathite, a rare, radioactive mineral containing arsenic and uranium which, according to wikipedia has "perfect cleavage"(!!!) v. corundum , i.e. RUBIES AND SAPPHIRES.
7 and a half hours left: vote here!

Guys! It's time to vote for Arsenuranospathite(Al(UO2)2(AsO4)2F·20H2O) RIGHT NOW. It's got radioactive uranium, it has poisonous arsenic. Fluorine! More water than you can shake a stick at. And there's this!

Between #Neptunite and #Arsenuranospathite I found myself with no real preference in this round of #MinCup23. However, after reading this, to paraphrase the 1964 US presidential race, I’m all the way with Arsenuranospathite. (Also, glowy, glowy uranium.) @mineralcup.bsky.social

For the new nerds, Arsenuranospathite, is (Al(UO2)2(AsO4)2F·20H2O). What do we want? Arsenuranospathite. When do we want it? RIGHT NOW. It's got radioactive uranium, it has poisonous arsenic. Fluorine! More water than you can shake a stick at. And then there's this.
