Item Description
A classic, sharp, closed cerussite sixling from the famed Tsumeb Mine. The sharp, admantine luster, smoky-gray crystal is translucent. Complete all-around and nearly pristine, with only a trivial bit of periphery wear on the display side. The sulfide contacts are on the back. Excellent cerussite from the Bob Trimingham Collection, acquired in 1969, when the mine was very active.
