Description

This is a mimetite of the highest quality from Tsumeb. It features sharp, incredibly lustrous hexagonal dipyramids of yellow translucent-to-transparent mimetite.

It was formerly in the Desmond Sacco collection and Tracy then acquired it from Jordi Fabre. A top-quality, classic Tsumeb mimetite!
