Item Description
Lustrous, pistachio-green, cuprian adamite crystals cover both sides of this sculptural and excellent, two-sided plate of solid cuprian adamite. Vivid coloration and sharp "pseudo-octohedral" form of the crystals to 9 mm mark this as a very fine miniature for this rare habit of this highly desirable Tsumeb species. Ex Marty Zinn Collection # 1643. Valued at $950.
