Smithsonite
A shocking, large, First-class cluster of GEMMY, intergrown Smithsonite crystals from the long defunct Broken Hill Mine in Zambia. The luster is excellent. The Smithsonites are clear, well-defined, and average 1.4 cm across. THEY ARE GEMMY AND TRANSPARENT! WHEN YOU LOOK AT FIRST, YOU THINK THIS MUST BE A CALCITE, IT IS SO BRIGHT AND CLEAN INSIDE! The terminations are sharp, and it is much better in person. Quite unusual for the locality, it is a significant specimen Ex. Stan Korowski collection (he was a mine geologist here in the 1960s and 1970s).
