Description

An oldtimer from Southern Germany!

Elongated, speer-shaped anglesite with excellent lustre lies on top of a cerussite-fluorite-galena gangue. Anglesite is in pretty good conditions and even locally translucent, and it is associated to a fluorite cube of good transparency.

A classic from the area, this comes from the former collection Lehmann (CH) and it dates back to the end of the 80s.
