Elaterite (also known as Aeonite,[1] 'elastic bitumen' , 'mineral caoutchouc' or Wurtzilite) is a brown hydrocarbon varying somewhat in consistency, being sometimes soft, elastic and sticky, like India rubber, and occasionally hard and brittle.
It is usually dark brown in color and slightly translucent.
A substance of similar physical character is found at sites around the Coorong lagoon in South Australia, and is hence termed coorongite.
