This miniature Descloizite is from Namibia, but not from Berg Aukas mine, but from lesser known Auros Farm 595, the opposite side of Grootfontein. Almost solid Descloizite, this well-crystallized specimen forms a small nodule, the inside of which is a cavity lined with well-formed and damage-free dark cola-brown resinous crystals. These crystals present a sharp, canine-tooth like form like, not as bladed or elongated as is often seen in crystals from Berg Aukas mine. They reach 1 cm in length, although most are 6 to 7 mm across. Material from this occurrence appeared on the market between 2007 and 2011 but only in small quantities suggesting that it was a limited find.
