Beudantite - lead iron arsenate sulphate hydroxide - is one of the rarer species to collect from Tsumeb mine, but good specimens don't come along very often. This is a miniature-sized example featuring cinnamon orange-brown Beudantite microcrystals lining several small cavities within a pinkish, possibly carbonate, matrix. Ex David Hardman Collection, with his white painted number marked at one end of the specimen.
