Description/Interesting Notes:
A fantastic example of this rare and sought after species from Tsumeb!!! This specimen consists of a chunky, highly complex crystal of
leadhillite!!! The crystal shows some highly complex forms with sharply defined crystalline features!!! The
crystal has complex, lustrous patterns on its surface while the sides of the specimen show brilliant, glassy
luster on the characteristic cleavage faces!!! Upon close inspection there are several gemmy, colorless blades of
cerussite in association as well as a small amount of unidentified material!!! To find ANY examples of leadhillite
from Tsumeb is quite difficult, let alone well crystallized examples such as this!!!
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 MONDAY NIGHT FOR A SPECIAL 3-DAY AUCTION, ENDING THURSDAY MAY 23rd!!!
