What do you have on Rashleighite, it's a variety of turquoise. it came in last night as a gift on another purchase is about 1"x11/4x1". Is very light colored with hint of the turqoise blue. is said to be from St Austgell Cornwall England UK.
Any properties and intuited abilities? I'm drawing a zip from net searches and my books.

sorry, no idea.
i would say tourquoise quality, maybe also through the locality of the find, cornwall being a mythic ground in UK. maybe also look for cornwallite

nope cornwallite i found is similar to copper family. is green or darker green. no comparison.
reckon i'll just stay with unknown variety of turquoise for comparison of properties.

I figured you might not have known the other names.As you didn't post it.
Otherwise I wouldn`t have posted it.
