Wurtzite

Merelani Hills, Lelatema Mts, Arusha Region, Tanzania

1.3cm x 1.14cm x .85cm


Description/Interesting Notes:

An extraordinary example of wurtzite from this famous tanzanite locale!!! There were just a handful of these extraordinary, gemmy wurtzites recovered in a tiny find made at this locality best known for its tanzanite!!! This wurtzite crystal exhibits a complex hexagonal pyramidal habit with lustrous faces and well defined striations!!! There is a small amount of calcite and graphite in association as well!!! The crystal has dark color, however with some backlighting one can see that the crystal is indeed gemmy and shows a deep amber-red color!!! The small handful of these specimens that were recovered were almost instantaneously snatched up by collectors and all but disappeared!!! Truly an incredible example of the species!!! Don't miss out!!! 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!!!
