A unique, fine and rich specimen from Tsumeb with two different varieties of cuprian adamite. One vug, at 4.8 cm, in the sulfide-rich, sculptural, mounded matrix is filled with sparkly, gemmy, emerald-green and pastel-green, cuprian adamite crystals. The adjacent vug is totally filled with the lustrous, pastel-green cuprian adamite variety. This is a fascinating, very rich and unusual cuprian adamite specimen from the Tsumeb Mine. Ex.
