This cabinet-sized reticulated Cerussite specimen from the famous Tsumeb mine in Namibia has a ghostly white surface coating of matt white Hydrocerussite. The overall size of the twinned Cerussite crystals is excellent, making for a dramatic, and heavy aggregate. This type of twinning in Cerussite is known, for obvious reasons, as "snowflake" twins and this is further enhanced by the snow-white colour imparted by the Hydrocerussite. Minor bluish copper staining is also present and the overall quality of the crystals is extremely good, with sharp undamaged edges. Due to its weight (470 g) additional postage charges might be required.
