Description/Interesting Notes:
A fantastic example of these rare germanium-bearing species from Tsumeb!!! This specimen consists of a combination of germaite and
renierite (along with likely other massive species)!!! On one side of the specimen one can clearly see the
pronounced orange metallic hue characteristic of the renierite and on the other side, the
purplish magenta hue characteristic of germanite!!! The colors are much more apparent in person!!!
In addition, there are some areas that host small sub-millimeter
crystals!!! Usually species associated with such matrix are rare!!! The crystals are tabular
and very lustrous and to my eye are certainly not a "common" species (they look like
beudantite)!!! The pics hardly do it justice!!!
Good luck and be sure to check out my other exciting mineral auctions on ebay!!!
