Large Wavellite (uncommon Florida locale)

Item Description

Wavellite specimens are uncommon from this Florida open pit phosphate mine, well-known for some of the finest US vivianite specimens. This uncommonly large and rich specimen is carpeted with spiky, two-toned botryoids of olive-green wavellite to 4 mm. Very rare, rich and large material from a museum collection. Ugly perhaps, to some, but nonetheless a rare treasure. A must for the locality or species collector. Value??
