Duftite on Calcite (Ref: AX-14-309)
Tsumeb, Otjikoto Region, Namibia
98mm x 70mm x 37mm
minID: R60-FQG
A striking cabinet sized plate of sharp Calcite crystals almost totally encrusted with bright sparkling Duftite micro crystals. In exceptional undamaged condition, Duftite is rare in good display quality specimens but this is a very fine and colorful piece. The individual crystals are more distinct and larger than the more typical Tsumeb smudges. Classic form for the underlying Calcite there is some selective coating noted but overall very little of the white calcite is exposed. Choice.From: Well-Arranged Molecules
