There, the unlikely combination of several geological factors made possible the occurrence of a wide variety of finely crystallized mineral species, to such and extent that this deposit set the highest international standards for several species over the second half of the last century. Among these, smithsonite is among the greatest classics, as Tsumeb is ranked among the most iconic localities for this species! Here is a beautiful specimen of dark pink smithsonite from this famous locality; note the top crystal has an unusual pattern with colourful base and clearer overgrowth. Ex coll. Bouzat
