Anglesite enclosing Linarite
Tsumeb
Otjikoto Region, Namibia
4.7 x 2.7 x 1.8 CM (miniature)
price: $1100
Winter 2016-17
An great old Tsumeb classic specimen. This is a milky-blue single crystal well-terminated but cleaved on the base as seen. A tiny bit of Malachite is seen on one edge, otherwise this is all bluish Anglesite. I am told that these were found only in the upper reaches of the first oxidized zone (the "green hill"). Not often available with such size and good luster.
