Smithsonite, with Tennantite/Chalcocite(?), Tsumeb, Namibia
USD 75.00 USD
Here is an excellent cluster of Smithsonite crystals from Tsumeb, Namibia. They look darker at first glance, but with brighter light, they reveal to be vivid brown, an almost butterscotch color, maybe slightly darker. Also, the crystals appear to form in a mold/cast type formation, with a hollowed out back side, and seem over crusted with a black mineral, which is possibly wither Tennantite or Chalcocite. Very nice, from an older collection.This specimen is 54 grams in weight, or 1 7/8 oz. The size is 2.3 x 1.5inch x 1 inch.
