Large and impressive orange Wurtzite with attached Alabandite, Graphite, and Diopside. This is a great piece not only for the large size of the Wurtzite, but the associated species including at least 4 Alabandite to 8mm, two gemmy green Diopside, and clusters of Graphite crystals. Found recently at the Merelani Tanzanite mines, Wurtzite from this locality are considered the world's best for species.
