Anglesite

Item Description

A striking "sword"-shaped GEM to gemmy, sharp, semi-lustrous, pale "straw" colored, orthorhombic crystal of Anglesite. The quality make this a wonderful thumbnail of this well known and highly sought after material. Arguably, the finest Angelsites extant come from this locality, and for good reason. Rarely does one encounter such well-formed, gemmy crystals of any size from virtually any other world locality. Even some of the best that Tsumeb has to offer are not nearly as impressive as the finest from Touissit. Great quality all around, with only superficial roughness along the base of the piece.
