The Tyuyamunite field should be used to list stations where the uranium mineral tyuyamunite is found.

Tyuyamunite is rare, but has been found in the Guadalupes. It occurs as small, bright yellow crystals on evaporite crusts like gypsum. Tyuyamunite is usually associated with quartz and opal. It is slightly radioactive.
