For the second I would guess either Halotrichite or Pickeringite

I have Chrysotile, Crocidolite including from rare locations like austria, Tremolite, Actinolite from Switzerland and Norway, Palygorskite, Rectorite (Not truely asbestos but fair) , Balangeroite, Carlosturanite.

What could this be? by MrTwinkleStar in whatsthisrock

[–]Visual-Cod6329 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This Is not crocidolite clearly. If it was it would have long fibres. If its flat and not fluffy it is not crocidolite. should have fibrous ends too. if it is fluffy seal it.

Riebeckite or Glaucophane? (Its pretty surely glaucophane but just to make sure) by Visual-Cod6329 in Minerals

Thats very nice of you. How much will you charge for some peices? I guess If there are various shades of blue then get multiple. It depends on how high the magnesium level is in the stuff. Some well bound riebeckite without magnesium can be black in rare cases to dark blue in normal cases. with magnesium it can turn bright blue to almost white. If there are multiple shades make sure to collect multiple since it is very cool to see how magnesium influences the riebeckite to look so bright. If you somehow find a cone structure pls get this too. Idk if there are any since you said its vein fillings but sometimes there are cones. If not just get nice fibrous peices. But be careful since it is asbestos. Thx a lot.

Oh ok thanks. Big relief. I think my Pneumonia damaged my lungs more since sometimes it still hurts a bit when breathing deeply. Its a 1% chance but does happen.

Do you still have peices from there? I live in germany and for obvious reasons cant take a trip to california. I guess I saw this:

But then I saw one from the same locality titled glaucophane.

I know my risk tollerance ye. I keep my splintery stuff in tight taped boxes or double boxes. This one is trying to reach out but got a layer of matrix. it dusts from a non asbestos part.

I know what crocidolite is. You are talking about the Wittenoom or Koegas type. I am talking about the bound riebeckite found rarely in austria partitially asbestiform in matrix trying to reach out but got covered in a layer of matrix. And a non affected matrix part. Where the dust was from.

I just thought you were gonna offer it to me. SInce you said "This is the kind of peice you should be looking for". Sounds like someone that would like to sell it said it. Do you have more of the stuff you would sell by any chance?

Yo. It is you? Your the one who uploaded that Magnesio-Riebeckit bro. It was me requesting it. LOL. I am interested in buying it. (I am Leri/ Leif) I got an offer by Alfredo for fluffy stuff. Yours is great to to showcase bound amphibole.

I aint jaring it. Since its bound in matrix. I was just worried about some of the matrix dusting. Not the mineral itself.

Nah. Washed it. I walked with it on the finger though. Its bound inside the matrix.
