Its chemical formula is Mg(UO2)2(PO4)2·10(H2O). It was discovered in 1932 at Shinkolobwe, Katanga Province, Democratic Republic of the Congo, and is named for Belgian mineralogist, Achille Salée (1883-1932), Professor at Université catholique de Louvain, Belgium. It was later determined that the Katanga mineral was meta-saleeite Mg(UO2)2(PO4)2·8(H2O) and the type locality was assigned to the Weißer Hirsch Mine, Neustädtel, Schneeberg District, Erzgebirge, Saxony, Germany.[4][5] References1. ^ Handbook of Mineralogy {{Phosphate-mineral-stub}}2. ^ Saleeite Mineral Data 3. ^[https://web.archive.org/web/20080819193253/http://www.uraniumminerals.com/UTh/Saleeite.htm] Uranium Minerals 4. ^Mrose, Mary E.
