Azurite with Cerussite, Bayldonite
specimen number:
8282396
location:
Tsumeb mine, Otjikoto, Namibia
description:
Sharp blocky deep blue crystals of azurite measuring to 0.7 cm in size are scattered across the top of this matrix mostly covered by micro crystalline yellow green bayldonite. Minor cerussite present. The specimen comes with a previous label from the collection of William Severance. His label notes ex Gordon Hannah and that the piece has been reinforced, I am not exactly sure how or what that means. I see nothing suspicious with the specimen.
