Anglesite

Item Description

Alluring GEM to gemmy, sharp, lustrous, rich yellow colored, orthorhombic crystals of Anglesite measuring up to 2.3 cm on matrix. The quality make this a wonderful specimen 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 a bit roughness and crystal separation along the base/front of the piece. From an old East Coast collection paired with labels from noted New York mineral dealer, Larry Conklin and another from Victor Yount.
