Item Description

Tsumeb is renowned as the Type Locality for many ultra rare, exotic species and this block of rich germanite ore hosts two species. The red arrow points toward a 1 mm bundle of acicular silky white fleischerite. A few scattered fields, to 4 mm, of glassy, translucent, olive-green stottite microcrystals are scattered on the piece. The largest is near the edge, above and to the right of the red arrow. Here's your chance to get to TWO Tsumeb rarities on rare gemanium ore! Comes with 3 dealer labels and is from the well-respected Frech Collection, via Carter Rich (whose ID's are generally considered very trustworthy as well).
