Polished Shattuckite with Azurite and Chrysocolla Free Forms x 4 From Congo
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Shattuckite with Azurite and Chrysocolla from Congo is a trio of Copper based minerals, hailing from the copper rich Katanga region of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, known for its vibrant specimens. Shattuckite, a rare Copper Silicate, offers deep blue to turquoise hues with a silky, fibrous texture, often forming botryoidal or massive shapes. Azurite contributes intense azure blue accents, appearing as prismatic crystals or flecks, while Chrysocolla softens the palette with its cyan-blue to green-blue tones, creating a harmonious blend. Together, these minerals, born from the oxidized zones of Copper deposits, showcase a mesmerizing interplay of color and texture, making each piece a unique natural artwork.
