Dioptase, Calcite
A pretty specimen of lustrous dioptase crystals on a matrix of euhedral calcites, with a later generation of micro-calcites that formed on part of the specimen, giving it the mossy accenting color. So you have a mix of the stark white calcite, glassy green dioptase and the more velvety areas with the micro-calcites. Tsumeb dioptases are ALWAYS highly desirable!
