This is a classic combo specimen from Tsumeb featuring deep blue Azurite crystals with bright green Arsentsumebite. The Azurite crystals are somewhat tabular and diamond-shaped and reach 2cm across. The Azurites are sprinkled with small white crystals of either Calcite or Smithsonite. Adding even more appeal are darker green crystals of Bayldonite after Mimetite. Ex. Alex Neufeld collection whose label indicates this was formerly in the Erika Pohl-Strohler and Washington Roebling collections. Comes with a custom Lucite display stand.
