MIX17B-12
Smithsonite ps. after Azurite
Tsumeb Mine, Tsumeb, Namibia
Miniature, 4.3 x 3.0 x 1.9 cm
SOLD
This pseudomorph is from a single small pocket in the 1970s and features sparkling, light greenish to greenish-tan (Cuprian) smithsonite, replacing what was once a well formed crystal of azurite, measuring 4.2 cm in length. A classic Tsumeb pseudomorph! I have seen only a handful ever come up for sale on the market. It is complete all around, 360 degrees, and a fine miniature.
