Hi list,

I saw a seller selling a Moldavite as a "great channeling crystal".  Aren't
Moldavites a type of impactite glass, and thus lacking crystal structure
(amorphous)?

Also, I was checking in an old geology dictionary, and it mentions that
Moldavites are a type of ozocerite (also spelled ozokerite).  A mineral
paraffin wax (aka mineral wax, fossil wax, earth wax & native paraffin).
Has anyone heard of ozocerite and know how they are (were) associated with
Moldavites?

Thanks,
