‘Tsumeb Oddities: Pseudomorphs, Casts, Coatings, Phantoms & Twins’About this Event
The Tsumeb deposit is celebrated by collectors for its exceptionally diverse range of mineral species, many of which form stunning, collector-quality specimens.
A single specimen may showcase multiple species, whether through the formation of a pseudomorph, a cast, a phantom, or a coating.
These processes highlight the complex chemical and crystallographic transformations underlying the creation of these remarkable pieces.
Neal Luppescu’s presentation will feature many aesthetic examples that illustrate the extraordinary diversity of specimens from the Tsumeb Mine.
