$1,200.00

Size: 7x4.5x3 cm

Species: Cerussite

Locality: Tsumeb Mine, Oshikoto Region, Namibia

Description: Lustrous, translucent crystals of isolated cerussites on vibrant green matrix that is appears to be a mixture of crystallized malachite and duftite. The cerussite crystals have inclusions of what appears to be an orange encrustation that is seen at other places on the matrix. That could simply be an iron oxide or at Tsumeb it could easily be something more chemically compels. Sharp edges all around, and excellent color contrast make this a very visually appealing specimen. A pristine and aesthetic example that presents nicely.
