Description

An exceptional dark, lusterous green malachite from the famous copper deposits at the Kolwesi mine. What makes this specimen standout in the crowd is that it is comprised of sharply crystallised malachite that make up this sculptural cluster. Very difficult to photograph because of the luster, must better in person
