#B2026 Smithsonite
Tsumeb Mine, Tsumeb, Namibia
(Ex- Rob Smith Collection)
13.8 x 10.1 x 7.6 cm
$1,100
Large, rich Tsumeb specimen with dense coverage of gemmy Smithsonite crystals; also with inclusions of an unidentified yellow mineral (probably Beaverite) that gives it an aesthetic double hued appearance. From the collection of the noted South African dealer Rob Smith.
Fantastic specimen of Hematite on one side of which are distinct euhedral crystals that were later covered with wine-red colored microcrystals of Andradite garnet. Looks like a plate of Strawberries ! Very unusual and aesthetic specimen from the Wessels Mine in the Kalahari manganese fields of South Africa. It is even more impressive in person. Note that the specimen looks a brighter red with white background than it does with a black background. The latter or darker red is closer to its natural color.
Gorgeous specimen of root beer colored Fluorite crystals on a mass of white Celestite crystals. Note the distinct phantoms in the larger Fluorite crystals.
Metaphysical Properties: Celestite helps to calm the over-active mind and teaches us how to be receptive to any new ideas and prevent us from being in true communication with ourselves.
Very nice specimen of brassy Pyrrhotite hexagonal crystals stacked together in barrel shaped configurations on a Quartz matrix. The name is derived from Greek pyrrhos, flame-colored.

Nice specimen of lustrous black botryoidal form of Hematite (Kidney Ore).
Hematite is a mineral, colored black to steel or silver-gray, brown to reddish brown, or red. It is mined as the main ore of iron. Varieties include kidney ore, martite (pseudomorphs after magnetite), iron rose and specularite or specular hematite (From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia).
The name garnet comes from the Latin word granatus which means "like a grain" in reference to the crystal form. There are many types of garnets as the chemistry varies widely. The name spessartine comes from the locality of Spessart, Germany.
A sharp and pretty light yellow Calcite crystal (2.5 x 2.5 cm) lies in the middle of this shallow vug lined with grayish tint Quartz and with minor Stilbite.
Apart from its incomparable cluster of mountain peaks and Glaciers - Baltistan's five valleys Shigar, Skardu, Khaplu, Rondu and Kharmang are noted for their luscious peaches, apricots, apples and pears. Shigar valley, 32 kms by jeep from Skardu is the gateway to the mountain peaks of the Karakoram.

Very uncommon specimen of stalactitic grayish Quartz beautifully decorated with small yellow balls of Fluorite.
A stalactite (Greek stalaktites, (Σταλακτίτης), from the word for "drip" and meaning "that which drips") is a type of speleothem (secondary mineral) that hangs from the ceiling or wall of limestone caves. It is sometimes referred to as dripstone (From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia).
A beautiful specimen of gemmy, vibrant green cluster of Vivianite crystals. Vivianite was named in 1817 after J.G.Vivian, an English mineralogist who first discovered crystals of the mineral in Cornwall.
Caution: Vivianite darkens on prolonged exposure to light. It can be observed and enjoyed, but then should be put into a box or dark cabinet to preserve its beauty for many years to come.
Gorgeous of lustrous light green Adamite on Limonite. The green color is due to trace amounts of Copper. Adamite was named after the French mineralogist Gilbert Joseph Adam (1795-1881).
Numerous blood-red tabular crystals cover this attractive specimen.
