The strands are 40cm long and strung for transport. We recommend replacing the transport thread with suitable knotting material.
The mookait balls of the strand have a diameter of 6.3 - 6.6mm.
The name "Mookaite" is derived from the largest locality of the mineral in the Kennedy Range, about 1000km north of the Western Australian capital Perth. Mookaite is mined there along Mooka Creek. "Mooka" means "flowing water" in the Aboriginal language and refers to the numerous springs in the area. Spellings such as Mokaite, Mokaid, Mokaait or Moukait are therefore incorrect. The only synonym for Mookaite at present is Australian Jasper.
