Splendid specimen of gem Dioptase crystals decorating white Calcite from this great locality - Tsumeb Mine, Namibia. It displays an excellent specimen with small but very gem and transparent crystals up to 1mm. They are brilliantly lustrous with rich and saturated emerald-green color and very sharp, perfectly terminated crystals. The quality is superior – very fresh and shiny. The crystals are gem with marvelous neon green nuances. The white Calcite rhombs below add super contrast. Some minor Duftite is seen too. Better in person. In excellent condition – some outside edge contacts.

Magnificent!
