This specimen, from the Mauldin Mountain quarries, shows an attractive coating of bright-green, botryoidal wavellite on fractured dark gray chert. The wavellite is microcrystalline, making the sparkle in the picture. Very characteristic green colour and good size specimen.
Wavellite specimens from Arkansas are becoming rare from this locality. In this remarkable sample we can see globular aggregates of crystals of this phosphate, with a second generation that covers them partially and of a lighter green color. Good color and aesthetics. A real classic.
