PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Crystalline Malachite with Chrysocolla on Dolomite matrix specimens
Crystalline Malachite is a visually stunning mineral known for its vivid green hues and intricate crystal formations. Unlike common botryoidal varieties, it features well-defined, needle-like crystals in drusy clusters or larger prismatic shapes, creating a sparkling, velvety appearance.
Sourced from the famous Katanga region of the Congo, this mineral forms through the oxidation of copper deposits. Treasured for its vibrant color and rich heritage, it’s a coveted piece for collectors and gem enthusiasts.
