[QUOTE="user 4386, post: 403662, member: 4386"] Don't know specific localities but have seen it everywhere from Mt Magnet to Wingellina. It forms near surface in weathered ultramafic rocks, which themselves are dark green but can be scratched with a gold coin (i.e. soft). e,g, northwest side of town at Mt Magnet, just west of the highway, although poor quality). Really good stuff is hard to find but the sort of stuff shown here is scattered everywhere at surface over these ultramafic rocks. You are a fair way from there - you might ask gem clubs in your region for specific localities (eg I would suspect it at Lake Grace, Boddington etc). [/QUOTE]
