Item Description
A shocking, vivid pink, cobaltoan dolomite crust from Tsumeb with one side having the VERY RARE association of glassy cerussite crystals. One cerussite cluster is a cyclic-twin and the other is a cluster of blades. This side is also sprinkled with cerussite microcrystals. We have never seen a pink Tsumeb dolomite with cerussite before. You usually see wulfenite crystals. Ex Wes Parker Collection. We value this rarity at $750-900
