Variscite with Crandallite and Wardite - classic US (Ref: 21.1-331)
Little Green Monster Mine, Clay Canyon, Utah, United States
77mm x 45mm x 19mm
minID: D22-94Q
A half nodule from the famed Variscite locality of Clay Canyon. This is quite an unusual nodule, it has complex zoned "eyes" showing these three Phosphates in concentric circles. An impressive illustration of the sequential deposition and alteration of these minerals, the details are especially striking. With good magnification it can be seen that there are small open cavities between some of the rings which contain micro crystals of other unidentified species. An early piece from the classic finds by Ed Over and Arthur Montgomery. In excellent condition, the color is a little brighter in person, overall a choice and mineralogically interesting piece of a type I have never seen before. From: Well-Arranged Molecules
