Wavellite

de Linde Claim, Dug Hill, Avant, Garland Co., Arkansas

3.06cm x 1.67cm x 1.55cm


Description/Interesting Notes:

An absolutely incredible example of BLUE wavellite from a small new find in Arkansas!!! This specimen is from a tiny single pocket that produced a handful of uniquely colored wavellite crystals!!! This specimen has an extraordinary BLUE to blue green color - it actually exhibits a significant color change depending on the lighting!!! In sunlight or full spectrum fluorescent lighting the specimen exhibits a unique blue green color that is unlike anything else I have ever seen in the mineral kingdom!!! In regular incandescent lighting, the specimen exhibits a more bluish color that is unlike any other wavellite I have ever seen!! They could easily be mistaken for a curious looking vauxite rather than wavellite!!! It is difficult to capture such incredible and unique color in the pictures - in person the blue color has a definite greenish note to it which is due in part to the complex, color-zoned crystals!!! In some small areas on the specimen one can see distinct color zoning in the cross-section view of some of the "balls" of crystals!!! The "cores" of the crystal contain some green areas while the vast majority has this unusual blue color - the result is a very unique color expression indeed!!! This specimen is in fantastic condition with highly lustrous crystals that show marked translucence as well!!! These rare blue wavellites are no doubt going to be a highly sought-after one time find!!! You don't want to miss out on this rare opportunity!!! The pics hardly do it justice!!! Must be seen in person to be fully appreciated!!! Good luck and be sure to check out my other exciting mineral auctions on ebay!!!
