Very rare for Tsumeb, the iron arsenate Arseniosiderite makes for an exceptional miniature, with the matrix covered by Arseniosiderite crystals that are about 3-4 mm in size. Lustrous and translucent-to-gemmy, the crystals have a yellowish-tan color that illuminates well. Often seen merely as crusts, such good crystallization and aesthetics really elevate the quality and desirability of this rarity. Ex. Clive Queit; Dr. Erika Pohl-Ströher - 42106.
