Description

A beautiful and rich specimen with many perfect complex ivory to pale yellow colour crystals of weloganite on matrix. Weloganite is very well-developed, fresh, lustrous, with the typical trumpet/lamellae growth patter. The fact that the base of the weloganite crystals is stained with a brown patina (oxides?) provides a striking color contrast.
 
Without a doubt, this is the best weloganite I have ever offered here on e-rocks.

In my collection for quite some time, it is among my favorite Canadian specimens and ready for a new home only at the right price!
