    Nice and buttery. Can you give us a broad location of where you found it? Good to know as a reference for its purity. :)

    A puzzle....
    So logic would assume we are talking about Western Australia and that is first search term used in my googling.
    Next we have the number of letters missing represented by the wild cards. They don't look like they a secret code
    since they are all upper case numbers, and not enough symbols there to represent an entire alphabet.
    So the first and last letters, how many missing and W.A...
    Gonna start at the back with Lake B@#%$*d
    List of all Lakes in W.A. give 3 that have B and D as first and last letter with 5 missing in the middle.
    Lake Baghdad, Lake Ballard, Lake Bedford.
    Which of these is close to Menzies? Off to google maps...
    Lake Baghdad is on Rottnest Islands so ruling that out...Lake Ballard is right in gold country so that is included.
    Lake Bedford is right next to Menzies and Lake Ballard is off to the North East by roughly 400 kms.
    The word Emerald pops to mind looking at E$#@%ld, which comes up on a bonzle map showing near Mt Owen in Menzies~ right on target!
    And the same bonzle map shows a place called Riverina just south of Emerald mine.

    I believe Ben Kenobi is saying,
    "Riverina, looks like it came off weathered greenstone in laterite to me. Drop into the Emerald mine and Lake Bedford while you were there maybe.
