Item Description
I can honestly say that I haven't had a piece of Digenite from Tsumeb to offer in the auctions prior to this piece. It's obviously not very common from this prolific locality, and any Tsumeb completionist should JUMP on the change to add a piece like this to their Tsumeb suite. As Digenites go, this is a fairly typical piece of the material showing massive form with a greyish black color and bluish/purple iridescence from oxidation. A very hard to find piece of this uncommon copper sulfide from this beloved locality.
