Malachite
$195.00
(From a recent trip to Namibia and Zambia) An exceptionally large specimen featuring deep green, fibrous, hemispherical aggregates of Malachite displaying a chatoyant, silky luster (Chatoyancy: an optical reflectance effect, as in “cat’s eye,” arising from the fibrous structure of a material . . . ) in a shallow vug highlighted and outlined by an outside layer of light green fibrous Malachite. A little wordy, I know – but it’s exactly that unique chatoyant luster that makes this particular habit of Malachite the most attractive and eye-catching. A large and amazing piece in excellent condition.
Location: Katanga Province, DR Congo
