Tsumeb, Namibia
8.4cm x 6.3cm x 4.6cm

A very showy specimen indeed! This specimen consists of several complex groups of pale green, highly translucent smithsonite crystals. The crystal groups are very 3-dimensional in person - with stepped, elongated rhombs jutting out in all directions. The crystals have a wonderful inner glow, creating a lively and aesthetic display. There is associated willemite, present as microcrystalline on the display face and somewhat more substantial crystals on the reverse. Pristine and aesthetic! All specimens have additional pictures upon request.

Tsumeb, Namibia

All in all a significant azurite specimen for the price! All specimens have additional pictures upon request.



TSU-105 - Willemite with Calcite and Malachite - $400 ~SOLD~
Tsumeb, Namibia
7.9cm x 5.8cm x 3.8cm

An attractive, and much more colorful than the pictures, combination of willemite, malachite, and calcite.

The malachite is richly- colored and velvety in appearance. And the calcite crystals are present as tiny, sharp, stark-white rhombs that provide a smart contrast and really set the specimen off nicely. All specimens have additional pictures upon request.
