Item Description

Malachite with pyromorphite and/or cerussite are famous from this very well-known small Pb-Cu-Co-Ni-Zn deposit. Adamatine lustre cerussite blades (some cyclically-twinned) and typical botryoidal malachite cover this showy and excellent combination from this famous locale. Many fine specimens were recovered in the 1970s from bulldozer cuts in the prospect and the deposit was commercially mined starting in 2009. The typical piece could be from either collecting era. Classic Rum Jungle cerussite and malachite.
