Hopeite and Tarbuttite crystals from Zambia – 1 unique flat

 

This collection features striking crystal specimens of Hopeite and Tarbuttite from Zambia. The pieces display vivid orange-red to yellowish coatings on contrasting matrix, with dense crystalline growths and fine textures. Surfaces range from sparkling crystalline to porous, highlighting a rich variety of structures and colors. This flat is a unique showcase of the rare association of these zinc phosphates.

These pieces come from the famous Kabwe Mine (formerly Broken Hill) in Zambia, a classic locality known worldwide for its secondary zinc phosphates. Hopeite is a crystalline zinc phosphate, while tanbellite is a rare secondary phosphate mineral from the oxidation zone. Specimens of this size and quality are increasingly hard to find. The flat shown is exactly the collection on offer.

 

The flat shown in the pictures will be shipped with the corresponding box and, if applicable, folding boxes. These may be partially used, show signs of wear, and have multiple labels or markings.
