Mineralogie & Entstehung

Mookaite (also Mookaite or Mook Jasper) is a radiolaritic jasper – it consists of the silicified skeletons of radiolarians (single-celled marine organisms). Chemically, it is SiO₂ with iron oxides and clay minerals that are responsible for the diverse colors. It forms in sedimentary deposits from the Cretaceous period. The only location is Kennedy Ranges, Western Australia.
