specimen number:
2541040
location:
Onderra Mine, Kaokoveld, Kunene, Namibia
description: Enormous beautiful lustrous green prismatic crystals of dioptase, some double terminated in measuring to 3.5 cm in length, extremely attractive over the top of a 14.0 x 10.0 x 5.5 cm matrix. Small platy crystals of wulfenite, colorless shiny cerussite crystals, blue plancheite, and yellowish green crystalline mottramite are scattered throughout. This is in outstanding condition; crystals for the species in this size are almost unheard of. The pictures do not do this one justice; it is very three dimensional.
