Location:
Netherby, South of NHill, Victoria, Australia.
Dimensions:
8.7cm x 7cm x 6.2cm, 167g.
Gypsum Selenite: (CaSO4·2H2O).
Hydrated calcium sulfate. In hot arid deserts, water evaporates from shallow, salty basins. Under these conditions Gypsum can grow around grains of sand to form flower like clusters of flat bladed Selenite crystals. They form rosette shaped clusters called Desert Rose Selenite. Other names are Sand Rose, Rose Rock, and Gypsum Flower. The name Selenite comes from selene, the Greek word for moon. Some would refer to the clear material as Selenite and other colours as Gypsum.

GLAUBERITE CRYSTALS
A lovely specimen of Glauberite Crystals. Initially these specimens are clear when first fished out of the mud with cut and bloodied hands. They turn white after contact with the Oxygen in the air. The fossicker who fished this one told me the second day was worse when cuts on his fingers were roughed up again. This happens when feeling around deep in the mud for them. Great fun. This is a rare and unusual Aussie mineral. The last big one found in an old box.
