Description/Interesting Notes:

A fantastic combination specimen from Tsumeb!!! This specimen consists of a showy combination of ruby red cuprite crystals, bright green duftite crystals, lustrous rhombs of calcite, and rare native silver var. kongsbergite!!! The cuprite crystals are sharp, lustrous, and have fantastic ruby red color!!! The duftite crystals are very well formed and have choice bright green color!!! The calcite crystals have marked clarity and glassy luster!!! There are several small areas of silver var. konsbergite scatterd about the specimen!!! There is a significant area of native silver var. konsbergite tucked in an elongated vug and there is also a small amount included within a calcite crystal!!! This specimen retains an old label from the collection of Joe Cilen!!! Upon close inspection with a loupe or scope there is a small amount of a pale yellow translucent unidentified species present as well!!! The pics hardly do it justice!!! Must be seen in person to be fully appreciated!!! Good luck and be sure to check out my other exciting mineral auctions on ebay!!! STAY TUNED!!!
