Cerussite

specimen number:
1041630

location:
Tsumeb Mine, Tsumeb, Otjikoto Region, Namibia

description:

Superb glassy gem quality transparent twinned crystals of cerussite measuring to 3.0 cm in length set attractively upon a 4.6 x 3.7 x 2.0 cm matrix. No damage - the quality is excellent. Good matrix cerussite specimens, because of the fragility of the species, are not terribly common. This is a good one. This item ships for free. Ex Lloyd Tate collection. Ref: Gebhard, G. (1999): Tsumeb II. A Unique Mineral Locality. GG Publishing, Grossenseifen, Germany, 328 p.
