History and description of howlite

The deposit of this mineral was first discovered in 1868 by Canadian geologist Henry Gove, after whom it was named. There are only a few deposits on the planet that contain howlite stone, two of them are in the USA, one in Canada, and recently small deposits have been found in Serbia and Germany.
