Description/Interesting Notes:
An aesthetic combination of species from Tsumeb!!! Plancheite is rare at Tsumeb and this is a fantastic representation from the locality!!!
This specimen hosts a dense cluster of gemmy, pristine emerald green dioptase crystals atop a layer of blue plancheite on a matrix of white calcite!!!
The plancheite consists of a network of somewhat fuzzy looking balls and botryoidal forms associated with bright yellow tsumcorite - creating some
interesting shades of green where they are intermixed!!! There are also some very minor patches of duftite and a small single cerussite crystal (and possible
minrecordite, although that would need to be analyzed!)!!! A fantastic specimen that needs to be seen in person to be fully appreciated!!! The pics
hardly do it justice!!!
Good luck and be sure to check out my other exciting mineral auctions on ebay!!!
