Cuprian Smithsonite on Rosasite
To me, the most beautiful habit of smithsonite, bar none period, from Tsumeb, is this rare style and combination: Gemmy and glassy, greenish-blue crystals of smithsonite, to .5 cm across, are emplaced on a crust of blue-green, rosasite which sits on a white, limestone matrix. The combination is very colorful! Although the crystals are small, they are so impactful, so juicy and bright, that this style of smithsonite is to me the most beautiful here, if not the most significant for size, and separation, I'd usually want.
