Description/Interesting Notes:
A magnificent example of cuprite from Tsumeb!!! This specimen consists of a cluster of sharp, complexly modified octahedral
crystals of ruby red cuprite!!! The crystals have razor-sharp faces with glassy luster, intense red color, and gemmy clarity!!!
There is a tiny amount of matrix in association and there are some highly complex features where the specimen
was in contact with the matrix, however the specimen is in magnificent condition with no damage and displays gorgeously
in person!!! Simply a gorgeous example of cuprite from Tsumeb!!!
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 JULY 26th!!!
