Description

Mookaite, also known as Mookaite Jasper, is found in Western Australia in the Kennedy Ranges near Mooka Creek. Mooka means ‘running waters’ in the traditional aboriginal language and pertains to the many springs that run into the Mooka area. Mookaite is a variety of chalcedony and is very popular because of its gorgeous purple color, though you can also find mookaite jasper in cream, brown, grey, yellow, white, mauve, purple red, and orange red color. This mookaite slab measures 13cm X 6cm and was donated by the Glendora Lapidary club.

100% of the proceeds from your purchase will be used to fund the Bidwell Gem & Mineral Museum. All shop items were donated by members of the Glendora Gems Lapidary Club.
