Haut-le-Wastia (in Walloon Hôt-l'-Wastea) is a locality of the Belgian municipality of Anhée located in the Walloon region in the province of Namur.

It was a municipality in its own right before the first merger of the municipalities in 1964, which (together with Warnant) attached it to the municipality of Anhée.

On January 1, 1977, a new merger created the "greater Anhée".

GPS coordinates are for the centre of the village.

Detailed Mineral List:

ⓘ Beraunite
Formula: Fe3+6(PO4)4O(OH)4 · 6H2O
ⓘ Cacoxenite
Formula: Fe3+24AlO6(PO4)17(OH)12 · 75H2O
Description: Associated with ferristrunzite.
ⓘ Calcite
Formula: CaCO3
ⓘ Crandallite
Formula: CaAl3(PO4)(PO3OH)(OH)6
ⓘ Delvauxite
Formula: CaFe4(PO4,SO4)2(OH)8 · 4-6H2O not confirmed
ⓘ Destinezite
Formula: Fe3+2(PO4)(SO4)(OH) · 6H2O
ⓘ Diadochite
Formula: Fe3+2(PO4)(SO4)(OH) · 6H2O
ⓘ Ferristrunzite
Formula: Fe3+Fe3+2(PO4)2(OH)3 · 5H2O
Habit: very brittle, elongated crystals, mostly less than 1 mm long, forming dense aggregates, either with radiating arrangement or with random orientations.
Colour: light yellow to nearly white, depending on the aggregate assemblage, with a silky to pearly lustre.
Description: Accompanied by cacoxenite responsible for the frequent darker yellow colour of the aggregates. On the larger ferristrunzite needles, cacoxenite occurs as encrustations of small individual crystals (up to l0 µm long).
ⓘ Jarosite
Formula: KFe3+3(SO4)2(OH)6
ⓘ Marcasite
Formula: FeS2
ⓘ Phosphosiderite
Formula: FePO4 · 2H2O
Habit: globules, pustules
Colour: greenish grey
ⓘ Vashegyite
Formula: Al11(PO4)9(OH)6 · 38H2O
Habit: saccharoidal, microcrystalline. Under high magnification, the mineral appears as lozenge-shaped lamellae with an acute 73° angle. The lamellae are implanted on the matrix like the pages of an open book.
Colour: white
Description: Analysis has shown the presence of trace amounts of K, Si, and Cl (Van Tassel, 1985).
ⓘ Wavellite
Formula: Al3(PO4)2(OH,F)3 · 5H2O
