Gorgeous, gemmy, deep emerald-green dioptase crystals fill a cavernous vug surrounded by powder-blue chrysocolla and accented by a lustrous, amber/tan, 1.4 cm, anglesite crystal from the Omaue Mine of Namibia. Anglesite is rare from the Omaue Mine, so this is a very showy and rare combination specimen.
