Anglesite

$400.00

Miniature, 3.4 x 3.2 x 2.8 cm

Tsumeb Mine, Tsumeb, Otjikoto Region, Namibia

Anglesite is a fairly rare occurrence from Tsumeb, and this large, 3 cm crystal is a good example. This translucent white Anglesite has very good luster and complex form. A few of the corners are bruised, but that is not unusual for such a soft mineral (2 1/2). The main crystal actually sits on a bed of four smaller partial crystals that have very sharp faces, and the piece actually sits up on its own very nicely. A good mini.
