Anglesite (GEM quality)

Item Description

A striking, 9 mm, GEM quality, razor-sharp, lustrous, electric yellow colored, orthorhombic crystal of Anglesite sits on Galena matrix. The overall aeshtetics combined with the superb quality make this a lovely 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. Obviously, the rest of the specimen is rough / contacted, but the main crystal is pristine.
