Item Description

Well-formed, lustrous, huge bi-color crystals from the famous Tsumeb Mine. Mimetite of this size is uncommon. These two major clusters almost perpendicular, or we can say it's a mimetite on mimetite. The vertical one has a gemmy termination, such a large crystal is hard to find, although it's not from the "Gem Pocket". Ex. Mary Perry, Jingnan (Tom) Zhang Coll.
