With a slightly 'blush' pink in comparison with Cobaltoan Smithsonite, the Manganoan variety at Tsumeb mine also shows a tendency to crystallize as much sharper rhombic crystals too. This very large miniature plate presents a very lovely layer of perfectly formed rhombic Manganoan Smithsonite crystals on top of a dull pale grey matrix. These crystals reach 5 mm on edge and therefore present really well for the price.
