19608: Mottramite, Calcite, and Quartz -
$8 Tsumeb, Oshikoto Region, Namibia Miniature - 5.1 x 4.2 x 3.2 cm 58 grams Specimen status: Available Send an email with specimen number to order A matrix cleft hosts numerous
lustrous, colorless to light brown, flattened calcite
rhombs (or discoids), these reaching about 1 cm in size.
In one area, several of the calcites are rough and brown,
due to mottramite overgrowth (or perhaps even
replacement). Minor quartz points are also present. Minor
cleaves are noted, but overall condition is very good.
