Cerussite, Tsumeb Mine, Oshikoto Region, Namibia
Size: 4x3.5x2 cm
Species: Cerussite
Locality: Tsumeb Mine, Oshikoto Region, Namibia
Description: Here we have a wonderfully lustrous Tsumeb Mine cerussite specimen that displays sharply defined “heart” twins on matrix. The are a variety of other twinned and reticulated habits when examining the specimen. I note two small spots of damage on crystals near the edges, neither is on the main crystals. A heart twin cerussite on matrix was hard to get when the mine was producing, now it is nearly impossible. A Tsumeb classic!
