Three intergrown Tarnowitzite crystals (two large and a smaller at the base). Undamaged, great luster, great piece. If you're looking for a top Tarnowitzite minature, this may be it. Comes with old label indicating it was obtained from Christian Gobin in 1978. Ex. Wolfgang Pohl collection, 3.3 x 3 x 2 cm.

Large specimen covered on all sides by small clusters of Mimetite with green Malachite. The specimen is amazingly free of damage given it's size, age, and the hundreds of clusters of Mimetite.

Size 13.5 x 7 x 7 cm.

Two intergrown Cerrusite sixlings, cluster 3.2 cm across, no damage and projects out nicely from the thin matrix, 4.5 x 4 x 2.5 cm.
