mookaite

Mookaite Jasper varies in color from deep red to bright yellow with areas of white, tan, brown, mauve/pink and purple.

Mookaite is a visually striking gemstone found close to the Kennedy Ranges near Gascoyne Junction, a small town east of Carnarvon in Western Australia. The name Mookaite is derived from its location at Mooka Creek, on Mooka Station, once a large sheep grazing property. My goats and I would probably love it there!
