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 golden, yellow and green color combination. The color is really attractive for Smithsonite, and not many of these specimens are still available on the market. There is a bit a of damage, but good Tsumeb minerals are increasing in value every day it seems. From the collection of John Arnaud.
