Description

Wulfenite from Tsumeb is generally more rare, crystals in this dimenstion (28 mm across and up to 20 mm on edges), quality and colour are absolutely exceptional. The faces consist of uncountable razor shart steps, all of the highly lustrous. The crystal is dark brown, with minor backlight. It shows intense yellow, brownish colour. The contrast to greenish matrix (caused by a Duftite layer) is fantastic, the assemble looks very asthetic.
