***Bringing you the very finest minerals ebay has to offer!!***


Baryte with Tennantite & Dolomite

Tsumeb, Namibia

4.63cm x 4.35cm x 2.6cm

Ex. Howard Belsky


Description/Interesting Notes:

A magnificent and rare example of baryte from Tsumeb!!! While baryte is a relatively common mineral, it is actually VERY rare at Tsumeb!!! This is a particularly fine example of the species from Tsumeb with numerous prominent, sharply defined crystals that measure up to 2.8cm!!! The crystals have marked luster and a deep butterscotch color!!! Upon close inspection one can see that there are other species in assocation in addition to the tennantite and dolomite (it appears that there is some possible galena, chalcocite, or other sulfides present as well)!!! These old Tsumeb barytes are extremely rare and difficult to acquire!!! 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!!! MORE AUCTIONS WILL BE ADDED SATURDAY NIGHT FOR A SPECIAL 5-DAY AUCTION, ENDING THURSDAY JUNE 13th!!!
