Cerussite on Copper with Malachite and Dolomite
Tsumeb
Otjikoto Region, Namibia
9.8 x 5.6 x4.4 CM (cabinet)
price: $3750
Winter 2016-17
An exceptional display quality specimen ex Marshall Sussman collection. Rare combo from this most classic locale, Native Copper in wires and branches is heavily encrusted with bright Malachite (balls and drusy crystals) and dusted with thousands of small sparkling Dolomites. The main Cerussite is 3.6 cm in diameter and that too is dusted with tiny Dolomites. The whole thing has strong esthetics and is in fine condition. No damage by naked eye but 10-20X magnification finds a very few, very tiny chips that can not be seen otherwise. Brilliant sparkling luster, displays great from many positions. A fine addition to any Tsumeb suite or classic collection.
