328  Cuprian Smithsonite
Tsumeb Mine, Tsumeb, Otjikoto Region, Namibia  
miniature  5 x 4 x 3 cm

Website: Cupro smithsonite. Dark green smithsonite crystals completely surround the galena matrix. No damage, except where it was contacted.

This is part of the collection from G. G. A. Linde. He worked on Tsumeb mine from October 1921 till September 1935. Please note that no trimming was done to any of these pieces. These pieces are as they were collected. Mr. Linde believed that one must not enhance a specimen after it was collected. So I leave it to you the buyer to decide to trim or not.
