Item Description

A showy and excellent, double V-twin cerussite crystal from the small finds in the early 2000s at the far less well-known Christoff Mine of the Kaokoveld, Namiba. The smoky, translucent crystals have the classic waxy luster and resemble the classic V-twins from Morocco. The narrow V-twin is doubly terminated and is pristine. Very rarely available material from this small find. Ex Charlie Key dealer stock.
