24-GG-14

4.8 x 2.8 x 2.2 cm

Sharp, straw yellow Mimetite crystals completely populate a gossan matrix in this specimen. Gotta love classic material like this! Don’t miss this choice Mimetite specimen from the eternally popular and long defunct Tsumeb Mine! One of the richest ore bodies in the world, the Tsumeb Mine produced millions of tons of metallic ores as well as numerous varieties of minerals, in all sorts of combinations! Mimetite is one of the main species collectors go for from this locale. This is definitely a keeper!
