From a small but unique find, come this amazing specimen.
Although this mineral pseudomorph has been found in the past, when found, it is seen as botryoidal formations on plates. These specimens are floaters.
There is little information on floater specimens such as this from this locale. The floater find was said to have been over 10 years ago.
This one reminds me of a frog. With the eyes atop of the head. The crystals of wavellite that are present almost look like a shirt on the frog.
I have this mounted in this position with mineral tac, but it can easily be removed and placed in another position if you wish.
All main spheres are complete, with a vein of wavellite crystals coming out of one of the spheres.
This Specimen has spheres up to 1.8 cm in diameter.
I always suggest that you do not use a lot of pressure when handling / mounting these specimens.
Some spheres are not inter-grown and are delicately attached to other spheres (as I sadly found out on one such specimen).
This specimen will be well packed for shipping. Acrylic Base is included. If you do not wish to use this base, please let me know.
A unique mineral formation, and extremely aesthetic.
