Item Description
A beautiful association specimen from this revered locality, featuring excellent, sharp, well-formed rhombic crystals of white to silvery colored Calcite measuring up to 2.3 cm across with a coating of pale green Duftite on select faces. This is truly a selective deposition of Duftite, as only certain faces are coated, while other are left completely untouched. The piece is in excellent shape on the display side, no major damage. These are true classics from Tsumeb, and you would be hard-pressed to find these two species together on the same specimen from any locality other than this acclaimed mine.
