PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Polished Cobbed Chrysocolla in PVC Resin Spheres - sold per item - From Zimbabwe
Chrysocolla with Malachite and Shattuckite specimens from Kempise, Congo, are remarkable mineral assemblages from the Kolwezi mining district in the Lualaba Province, renowned for its rich copper deposits. These specimens display a mesmerizing palette, with Chrysocolla’s soft turquoise to teal hues forming smooth, botryoidal layers or crusts, interwoven with the lush, forest-green banding of Malachite, and accented by the rare, vivid blue of Shattuckite, which often appears in fibrous or crystalline clusters. The interplay of these copper based minerals, Chrysocolla (a hydrous copper silicate), Malachite (a copper carbonate), and Shattuckite (another copper silicate), creates a dynamic contrast of textures and colors, ranging from silky and matte to glossy and striated.
