The base of the thumb's proximal phalanx is the expanded, rounded end of the bone that articulates with the trapezium bone of the wrist. It serves as the point of connection between the proximal phalanx and the first metacarpal bone, allowing for a wide range of thumb movements.

Where is the acromial end on the clavicle?

The acromium is a region of your shoulder blade. The clavicle is your collarbone. Where the two articulate or form a joint is the acromioclavicular joint. You can palpate this by following your collarbone towards your shoulder until you feel a notch. That is pretty much putting your fingers right on that joint.
