Azurite with Cerrusite Tsumeb Mine, Otjikoto Region, Tsumeb Namibia
5.9 X 4.7 X 4.2cm
This specimen presents a style of Azurite I had not seen before from Tsumeb. From what I could ascertain, it is from a singular find. The crude azurite blades are quite dark, and cemented together by dark grey cerrusite. Mostly all faces appear complete, and it may be a floater. Very good luster and dimensionality. Displays from every side.

Barite Paleokamareza Mine, Lavrion Greece
4.3 X 3.2 X 1.3cm
This is classic material and highly sought after. Red barites are found in only a few localities around the world. These are sharp crystals with clear edges and red centers. I recently saw one, the same size, sell on an online auction for $350. Here you can buy one for just over a hundred!

Baryte Wessels Mine, Hotazel South Africa
3.8 X 1.5 X 1cm
I am a big fan of Kalahari specimens. Barytes from the Wessels are known, and are more commonly found in matrix or with associations. This one is larger than most I have seen and has intricate cockscomb faces that alternate along the prism axis. A minor nibble along one side as pictured. From the Don Schultz collection.

Baryte Mt Ouichane, Segangan, Nador Morocco
6.5 X 6.3 X 4.5cm
These barytes were amoung the newer material at the show. Totally undamaged ones were going for big money. I chose this one as the only broken crystal broke at its base and it is does not effect the dimensionality and architectural presence of the piece. I even like the view from the back!

This specimens only point of attachment was at the bottom, which now serves as a perfect stand. It is complete in every respect, with a milky center graduating to cascading gemmy amber tipped crystals in a sub parallel formation. Quite different!
