Mimetite with Willemite
specimen number:
4901013
location:
Tsumeb mine, Otjikoto, Namibia
description:
Yellow prismatic crystals of mimetite to 0.5 cm in size scattered richly across this matrix mostly covered by lustrous brown crystallized willemite. Micro-chipping present but very minimal, I think that the specimen is in good condition. From the 1970s, a nice combination piece from this classic locality.
