POLISHED MOOKAITE JASPER
This stunning, multicolored stone has pastel hues of reds, yellows, and purples. Mookaite can be described as chert, opalite, chalcedony, or combination of the three. It's actually a sedimentary rock formed from the microscopic remains of tiny radiolarians!
Mookaite is found as nodules in the Windalia Radiolarite formation within the Kennedy Ranges near Gascoyne Junction, Western Australia.
