At its simplest, a mineral is a naturally-occurring solid chemical.  Currently, there are over 4900 named and described minerals - about 200 of them are common and about 20 of them are very common.  Mineral classification is based on anion chemistry.  Major categories of minerals are: elements, sulfides, oxides, halides, carbonates, sulfates, phosphates, and silicates.\n\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The silicates are the most abundant and chemically complex group of minerals.  All silicates have silica as the basis for their chemistry.  \"Silica\" refers to SiO2 chemistry.  The fundamental molecular unit of silica is one small silicon atom surrounded by four large oxygen atoms in the shape of a triangular pyramid - this is the silica tetrahedron - SiO4.  Each oxygen atom is shared by two silicon atoms, so only half of the four oxygens \"belong\" to each silicon.  The resulting formula for silica is thus SiO2, not SiO4.\n\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Uranothorite is a rare thorium uranium silicate mineral, (Th,U)SiO4.  Both thorium and uranium are radioactive.  They can be dominant components of some primary minerals formed from cooling magma.  Uranothorite forms under non-oxidizing conditions - in such environments, the uranium is in the form of U+4 ions.  The host rock for the uranothorite shown above is a Precambrian-aged pegmatitic granite in the San Gabriel Mountains of southern California, USA.  Several pegmatites intrude an anorthosite complex in the area - the host pegmatite for this specimen has intruded norite.\n\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Geologic Unit: Pacoima Canyon Pegmatite (Pacoima Pegmatite; Allanite Pegmatite), Mesoproterozoic, ~1191 Ma\n\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Locality: South Fork of Pacoima Canyon, northwest of the town of San Fernando, San Gabriel Mountains, Los Angeles County, southern California, USA\n\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Chr>\n\u003Cp>Photo gallery of uranothorite:\n<a href=\"\u003Ca rel=\"nofollow\" class=\"external free\" href=\"http:\u002F\u002Fwww.mindat.org\u002Fgallery.php?min=8611\">http:\u002F\u002Fwww.mindat.org\u002Fgallery.php?min=8611\u003C\u002Fa>\" rel=\"nofollow\">www.mindat.org\u002Fgallery.php?min=8611<\u002Fa>\n\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Chr>\n\u003Cp>Some info. from:\n\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Robert Lauf\n\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Neuersburg (1954) - Allanite pegmatite, San Gabriel Mountains, Los Angeles County, California.
