Specimen very rich in mimetite crystals, with shapes of the hexagonal dipyramid, some doubly terminated, with a slightly orange-yellow colour, very brilliant. They are disposed on a matrix of goethite with hemimorphite. From an unusual locality for the species. The specimen has been analyzed since it was labeled as pyromorphite. We will send the results to the buyer.

Size: 5.3 x 4.6 x 3.7 cm.

Analyzed specimen with report

A novelty at Sainte-Marie-aux-Mines 2013. Globular aggregates of tabular hemimorphite crystals showing an intense blue color and good luster. This blue color is unusual for the species and in relatively few deposits can be observed, it is usually colorless. The specimen is peppered by groups of very sharp cerussite crystals with good brilliance, some of them partially covered bay a black microcrystals, showing prismatic crystals and cyclic twins. From a recent find at the Kimbedi copper mining area in the Republic of Congo (Congo Brazzaville).

Size: 8,0 x 6,0 x 4,0 cm.
Main crystal: 8 x 7 mm (aggr.).
