An UNUSUAL, rare and showy coated pseudomorph from Tsumeb. This jackstraw cluster consists of tennantite pseudomorphs after sharp azurite crystals, which are coated with glassy, light gray smithsonite rhombs. The broken pseudos reveal the tennantite cores wrapped by the smithsonite rhombs, a neat revelation of the pocket chemistry. Very uncommon and showy material from this famous locale.
