Description/Interesting Notes:
A magnificent example of this rare species from Tsumeb!!! This specimen consists of a quartz matrix that hosts a rich showing of fine
tsumcorite crystals in association with malachite!!! Tsumcorite is usually seen as thin, blade-like crystals with tabular crystals being somewhat rare!!! Upon
close inspection, the crystals have a more tabular habit with pronounced luster and marked clarity!!!
The crystals are quite fine and somewhat unusual
for the species (Tsumeb is always full of surprises... and rare species)!!! The botryoidal malachite is a handsome accent as well!!! This is older material
from the collection of Jack Strange!!! The pics don't even come close to doing it justice!!!
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 MARCH 10th!!!
