3716.ar ((WULFENITE on ?SMITHSONITE or CALCITE)), $35 MINIMUM BID, Tsumeb Mine, Namibia, 6 x 5 x 2.5 cm, Miniature, | |
Here is a Wulfenite with large crystals on matrix. The matrix is covered with pink rhombs that may be Smithsonite or pink Calcite. It does not looks 100% like the Smithsonite or Calcite. It is probably Calcite with a different look. Pink would be Manganoan Calcite. Color does seem right. Color looks more like a Smithsonite color. Interesting. |
