Item Description
This is an unusually handsome Tennantite combination piece from Tsumeb as both tennantite and quartz in good crystals are rare here - were, rather. This attractive oddity features at least two dozen, charcoal-gray tetrahedral crystals of Tennantite associated with Dolomite and Quartz. The well-formed, satin lustered, 0.5 to 1.2 cm Tennantite crystals are both clustered and nestled in amongst off-white, very much saddle-shaped crystals of Dolomite to 1.5 cm along with clusters of frosted Quartz crystals to 1 cm. All three species are nicely arranged on the piece making for an unusually display-worthy specimen. It sits perfectly for display!
