Wavellite

specimen number:
2013107

location:
Dug Hill, Avant, Garland Co., Arkansas, USA

description:

An outstanding miniature for the species from this classic old Arkansas locality. Chatoyant lustrous balls of crystallized wavellite measuring to almost 3.0 cm in diameter are set perfectly up on matrix. Note that for this locality, the countless thousands of wavellite specimens that have been collected over the years were almost all flat lying crystal groupings. Good large balls such as this have always been very uncommon.
