Wulfenite on Dolomite

Item Description

A wonderful display specimen of Wulfenite from this most classic of localities. Top quality Tsumeb Wulfenites don't get enough attention in my mind, as they get somewhat lost in the shuffle amongst so many other minerals from this famous mine. The best pieces from this locality are fine quality crystals with excellent color, often in fine display quality examples. This thumbnails sized piece features a very sharp, highly lustrous, rich golden colored tabular blade measuring 1.8 cm on edge, with a few additional smaller Wulfenite sitting on silvery-grey Dolomite matrix. No major damage, only a few tiny imperfections that I can see. A wonderful and aesthetic piece of these classic Wulfenites.
From the collection of Jason Adams (#62013), valued $1,500-$2,000.
