Item Description

A classic, showy and rich combination specimen from the famous finds at Rum Jungle in the late 1970s. Glassy, adamantine luster, reticulated to cyclic-twinned, cerussite crystals to 1.5 cm richly invest the sturdy, very vuggy, gossan matrix covered with very complimentary malachite botryoids. Highly representative and excellent combo material from this noted locale. Ex Bob Trimingham Collection. Purchased in 1980, soon after these were collected.
