Here's Stibnite X Okenite inks in the #MinCup25 sketchbook 💎

#minerals
sketchbook page photo with black and white drawings of two minerals: stibnite and okenite. The first is like some metal bars exploding from a point in its center and the second is like white fluffy balls of microscopic needles.

okenite is cute but how can you not love stibnite? I’m all about the drama.

Spiky stibnite or fluffy okenite? I've seen samples of each in museums and they're both appealing. But okenite is new to #MinCup25, so I'll give it a boost.
Okenite sample: A mottled gray basalt geode filled with nodules of okenite that look like cotton balls. The geode looks a bit like a cartoon clam.

Stibnite has goth appeal, but imagine peering into a vug lined with Amethyst or Prehnite to find these fluffy #Okenite tribbles.

Okenite is a phyllosilicate, similar to Muscovite. Are the needles as elastic as a sheet of mica?

Stress-free appreciation for cute little puffballs of okenite, no need to think about picking a favourite and voting since this mineral isn’t in this year’s Mineral Cup. #MineralMonday #GeoscienceBluesky ⚒️🧪
Specimen of grey rock with a cavity down the middle with green crystals and two white balls of thin okenite needles. Sits on a frosted plinth on a glass shelf off a grey wall. At the Royal Ontario Museum.

What a weird little phyllosilicate. Where's your aluminum, little buddy?

A white cotton-ball looking mineral with poorly drawn googly eyes. The background consists of smaller, tan crystals that look like cauliflower.

I’m torn. I remember campaigning for dark & dramatic #stibnite in #MinCup24 but those fragile, fluffy, cutie-pie little newcomers of #okenite are tugging on my heart strings. I feel both calling to me. I think I’ll have to think about this one. #MinCup25
