Cuprian Smithsonite on Mimetite with Duftite

Tsumeb, Namibia

3.46cm x 3.2cm x 2.63cm

Ex. Tony Nikischer Collection


Description/Interesting Notes:

A fantastic combination of species from Tsumeb!!! This specimen consists of a cluster of thick, chunky hexagonal crystals of mimetite that are richly covered by light blue green, rice-grain crystals of cuprian smithsonite in association with rich green microcrystals of duftite!!! All three species are very well crystallized and the specimen is quite three-dimensional in person!!! One half of the mimetite crystals are almost completely covered with smithsonite crystals with only their silhouette visible underneath while the other half shows sharply formed hexagonal crystals of mimetite that host smithsonite and duftite crystals scattered across their surfaces!!! The specimen is in fantastic condition and quite showy in person!!! Old material!!! The pics hardly do it justice!!! Must be seen in person to be fully appreciated!!! This specimen is from the collection of Tony Nikischer!!! We just acquired the 6000+ specimen PERSONAL collection of Tony Nikischer and there are going to be some very exciting minerals to come in the upcoming days and weeks!!!
