Very rare Jeremejevite on Foitite crystal on matrix, from the Erongo Region, Namibia.

AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

An exceptional and rare miniature specimen featuring the highly coveted mineral Jeremejevite, crystallized on a matrix of Foitite. This piece originates from a classic, historical find in the Erongo Region of Namibia and is presented in its natural, unaltered state—no glue or repairs have been used.

The specimen is accompanied by three representative loose Jeremejevite crystals from the same locality and find. These are included to illustrate the typical crystal form and can be placed near the specimen for display, enhancing its visual completeness and educational value. Small cavities within the matrix, some still showing crystal terminations, attest to the natural formation process and the specimen's authenticity.

A remarkable and collectible example of one of the world's rarest gem minerals, offering significant value for the advanced collector or connoisseur of rarities.
