Well, what can I say. Inspired by Mindat and Strahlen.org, I visited the area of Vielsalm, Ottré and nearby localities quite a few times, and relatively it produced very limited results. Most trips ended with the enjoyment of some Belgian beer and food, but with no minerals. Still today I managed to build up a small collection of quite nice specimen, of which some were bought on a fair in Antwerp. Those that were bought will never be really fully part of my collection, allthough I had to search for them anyway as they are also rare at fairs. The Wavellite is the only one I found myself.
