Item Description

A classic specimen from Tsumeb featuring small prismatic, very sharp, highly lustrous dark golden yellow color hexagonal crystals of Mimetite on matrix. The largest crystal measures 5 mm. From an old East Coast collection with an old label from John Albanese. With the price of Tsumeb specimens rising daily, this is a great opportunity to snag a classic specimen from what is considered by most people to be the most prolific mineral locality in the world. Valued at $1200.
