Greenish-Blue Tsumeb Willemite

Greenish-Blue Tsumeb Willemite from Tsumeb Mine, Tsumeb, Otjikoto Region, Namibia

Collection

Robert Lavinsky

Description

A fine example of greenish-blue Willemite from Tsumeb, because of the sharp contrast with crystallized white Dolomite. The color appears, therefore, superficially more rich. It has a nice, sugary luster to it as well. Ex. Dave Wilber to George Holloway in the 1970's.

Locality

Tsumeb Mine, Tsumeb, Otjikoto Region, Namibia
