Hello Jordi, visually I agree, but neither specimen fizzed like calcite when put in strong descaler liquid. |
Thanks Heimo.
Could you check the fluorescence please? The Tsumeb Willemite tends to have an intense fluorescence under short UV and a regular fluorescence under long UV
Thank you! |
Hello Jordi, thanks for the advice. Will do the recommended tests next week, as soon as I get back home from the farm.
Regards. |
Apologies for the long delay. No fluorescence for both specimens under short and long UV.
Regards.

Hello Pierre. Yes, quite unusual and not as common as the cobaltoan variety.
