Opširnije VavelitTag: Wavelite
Wavelite is a hydrated aluminum phosphate mineral with the formula Al₃(PO₄)₂(OH,F)₃·5H₂O. It typically forms radiating spherical or hemispherical crystal clusters, often in green, yellow, or white hues. Wavelite occurs in phosphate-rich rocks and as a secondary mineral in hydrothermal environments. It is often found with variscite and other phosphates. Major localities include the USA, Germany, Brazil, England, and the Czech Republic. This page explores wavelite’s structure, color, crystal habit, and role in mineral collecting.
