A dramatic and outstanding Tsumeb specimen of tennantite ps. azurite. These pseudomorphs are hard to find, and one of this quality and stature is remarkable. Further green copper mineralization of malachite(?) creates gorgeous contrast. Truly an exceptional example of this Tsumeb classic. A must have for the distinguished Tsumeb or copper mineral collector. Includes custom Sunnywood base for display as photographed.
