Item Description
Most people do not realize until later in collecting, that Tsumeb is NOT the first source of dioptase: rather, it was from this small mine in remote Kazakhstan. This is a fine display specimen for the size, with sharp crystals showing saturated color, to just under 1 cm. A great little locality specimen.
