Unit price per1 low in stock
Oolites in the Great Salt Lake, Utah, are tiny, sand-sized, spherical or ovoid grains (0.15–1.5 mm) formed by calcium carbonate precipitating in concentric layers around a nucleus—often brine shrimp fecal pellets or mineral fragments—in shallow, wave-agitated water. These light brown grains, commonly found on Antelope Island and Stansbury Island, are modern examples of carbonate sedimentation.
This geological specimen found around Stansbury Island and other parts of the Great Salt Lake is an interesting addition to any mineral collection.
