This is one of the better specimen of all the Kuksite I had purchased last year. It is basically a specimen of Quartz with globular light green Malachite. On top of the Malachite are little yellowish green Segnitite crystal. You can see these in photos 7 and 8. All the good stuff however is on the flat side. It is very rich in Kuksite as seen in the last eight photos as spherical groups ot about 0.3mm. Likewise the Segnitite is on the backside and again as yellowish green crytstals in much thicker patches. Amongst the Segnitite are 1mm leaf Silver crystals. Awesome, interesting, rare specimen which will blow your mind under the scope.

You really can't appreciate this specimen without looking at it under the microscope. The Leucophosphite forms 0.5 to 1mm crystals. The digital camera brings out the purple color, but in hand, the crystals are actually a dark magenta purple. A dark magenta color may indicate that the crystals are Tinsleyite, the aluminum analog of Leucophosphite. But I have tested many and they usually turn out to be Leucophosphite. At the Tip Top, Tinsleyite can form on the outer extents on Leucophosphite so sometimes testing can be unreliable. This specimen has not been tested. Most of the vug is a a Mn-oxide.
