Wavellite with Quartz

Item Description

Some of the largest and most displayable specimens of Wavellite have come from the Siglo XX mine in Bolivia as described by Mark Bandy. This piece does not disappoint with several, good quality yellow/cream color, sphere-shaped radiating aggregates measuring up to 6 mm plus Quartz crystals on matrix. This is one of the better quality, highly displayable specimens of this material that I've offered in the auctions recently. This specimen was collected in September of 2010, and would make a great addition to a phosphate suite or a suite of specimens from the Siglo XX mine.
