Size: 11.6x8.0x3.2 cm
Species: Dioptase, On Calcite
Locality: Tsumeb Mine, Tsumeb, Oshikoto Region, Namibia
Description: The contrast of the emerald green dioptase crystals on the white dolomite matrix is superb. The luster of the dioptase is top notch. Specimens like this leave no question in the viewers mind why dioptase from Tsumeb is considered some of the finest in the world. I note 3 minor dings 2-3mm in size if you stare at the piece hard enough. One is hidden when on display in the base. Ex. Mel Bersch. Comes with custom cut acrylic base.
