This attractive specimen from the renowned Tsumeb Mine, Namibia, features vivid emerald-green dioptase associated with contrasting olive-green duftite. The combination of these two secondary copper minerals creates an appealing interplay of colour and texture, with the brilliant green dioptase standing out against the more subdued tones of duftite. Tsumeb is particularly celebrated for its remarkable diversity of secondary copper and lead minerals, and specimens featuring this association are highly sought after by collectors. A beautiful example of the mineral diversity for which this world-famous locality is known.
