Beautiful specimen of small Dioptase crystals decorating colorless Calcite from this famous locality – Tsumeb Mine, Namibia. The Dioptase crystals are small but brilliantly lustrous with intense emerald-green color. The crystals are gemmy with marvelous neon green nuances. The sharp rhombohedral Calcite crystals are translucent and lustrous. The contrast is very strong with wonderful colorfulness. In good condition – some small nicks and outside edge contacts. On acrylic base.

Fascinating!
