Chrysocolla with Malachite (restored x2)
specimen number:
8282216
location:
L'Etoile du Congo Mine, Lubumbashi, Haut-Katanga, DR Congo
description:
A very attractive large cabinet piece showing stalactitic and botryoidal blue chrysocolla coming off of a green botryoidal crystallized malachite matrix. The specimen exhibits several interesting rod shaped formations of chrysocolla as seen. Slight restoration work has been done on one of these. It is not obvious. Overall I think this neat piece is in great condition. The specimen comes with a custom acrylic display base.
Size: 19.0 x 17.0 x 14.0 cm (large-cabinet)
