Cerussite with Goethite, Descloizite
specimen number:
4751127
location:
Tsumeb mine, Otjikoto, Namibia
description:
A very sharp crystal of cerussite 4.5 cm in length, this coated with brown goethite and set on a matrix of crystallized descloizite. Very unusual, I think exceptionally neat. Very minimal micro-chipping present as shown in the video, I think this in excellent condition. At one time this was part of the collection of Marion Stewart and comes with the data card and collection label. From 1978.
