SOLD
An AESTHETIC and SUPERB pseudomorph from the famous and now-closed Tsumeb Mine. Ultra-sharp tennantite pseudomorphs after azurite crystals are aesthetically mounted jackstraw fashion on matrix with needle quartz. The 2.8 cm, doubly terminated, dark matte-gray pseudo has a very sharp chisel termination. Tennantite pseudos after azurite are RARE from Tsumeb and this is a REALLY GOOD one. Ex Rob Smith Colllection, a noted Tsumeb specialist.
