From the collection of Tony Nickischer (Excalibur Minerals).From the type locality, collected and sold to me by the author, the late Paul Moore! Ferrowyllieite occurs as dark blue to almost black crystalline masses and cleavages scattered through pegmatite matrix. Originally described by Moore as wylleite and later redefined by him, the material and locality is now under water in a reservoir, so no more material will ever be recovered from here!
