Unique Wavellite w/ "Near-Turquoise"- Old Stock, Garland County, Arkansas

Unique Wavellite w/ "Near-Turquoise"- Old Stock.

from Location "R"

Garland County, Arkansas

ex Henry Delinde

Old stock Wavellite w/ vibrant blue "near-Turquoise" . Is it Rashleighite? Turquoise? Planerite? only further analysis would tell....but it is interesting that it was labeled this way. Location "R" is a mystery as well. Perhaps it is from Henry Delinde's old claim in Garland County, or a different location entirely. A mystery. Nice aesthetics and Excellent crystallization, all on a matrix of chert.  

This is from Henry Delinde's collection, and comes displayed in the original perky box. Very cool thumbnail specimen. See photographs for details.

Specimen size Approx. 2 x 1.5 x 0.7 cm

Perky case approx: 3.3 x 3.3 x 3.3 cm
