Description/Interesting Notes:
A unique and showy example of calcite included with chalcotrichite with malachite and cuprite from Tsumeb!!! This specimen
consists of a rare and aesthetic cluster of bright orange, chalcotrichite included calcite crystals paired with
rich green crystals of primary malachite on a matrix that has handsome powder-blue hue!!! The calcite
crystals have highly complex forms with glassy luster and marked translucence!!! Upon close inspection, one can see
scattered crystals of cuprite included within the calcite crystals - in addition to some small cuprite crystals scattered about the
matrix as well!!! This specimen is in magnificent condition all around and displays gorgeously in person!!! A striking and
unique Tsumeb combo!!!
The pics hardly do it justice!!! Must be seen in person to be fully appreciated!!!
