Touissit Anglesites are arguably the best in the world and rarely come on matrix, like this one. This cluster consists of well over a dozen, glassy gem crystals from 3 mm to 1 cm in size and vary from ones having a smoky hue to those having a pale yellow color. Half of the crystals are terminated, the others are not. The Anglesites are gem crystals here, and interestingly are set on a matrix of gray, metallic, granular Galena with some admixed, cerussite crystals (some damaged, but still uncommon to see). The bottom has a few smaller, complete Anglesite crystals. Part of an educational set, with these additional items: Anglesite on Cerussite (SYP25-12a) and Cerussite (SYP25-12c).
