Description
Eleonorite is a mineral obtained by the oxidation of berunite, itself a secondary species found in peat bog iron ores and as a cement in clays, sands and bones; also as an alteration product of triphylite in granitic pegmatites.
It appears here in radiating, reddish aggregates. A nice contrast with the green wavellite.
From Polk County, Arkansas, Usa.
