Item Description

Smithsonite from Tsumeb is found in virtually every color of the rainbow, and it remains one the most prolific species from this most significant locality. This specimen displays a gorgeous intense lime-green color. The color is nearly as intense as I have seen for this variety of Smithsonite, and not many of these specimens are still available on the market.
