Rarely do you get isolated, large ballshaped wavellites like this, in excellent quality. They came out of the Avant Quarry area in the 1950s-1960s. This is a well-trimmed specimen with a 1-inch ball on matrix, and a few smaller ones in association. It is extremely aesthetic, without the usual broken bits that often accompany or are attached to such larger clusters. ex Al Ordway Collection. Joe Budd photos
