Description

Cristobalite tridymite was discovered for the very first time in Namibia on the farm mesopotamie in the khorixas region. A rich paraiba color of the gemmy botryoidal masses with contrasting white and paler areas is appealing.

There are beautiful spherical formations visible on the front face and the color intensity varies dependent on how thick the chalcedony layer is.
