PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Rare White Botryoidal Hemimorphite with Chrysocolla Accents – Lupoto Mine
These specimens display thick botryoidal white hemimorphite crusts with a matte to pearly luster on heavy zinc-lead rich Dolomite matrix, accented by scattered vibrant turquoise blue Chrysocolla patches and linings from the Lupoto Mine in Haut-Katanga, Democratic Republic of Congo. This uncommon white variety combined with chrysocolla is extremely scarce, with very limited material ever recovered from this copper-dominated locality.
