Size: 5.0x4.4x4.0 cm
Species: Malachite Stalactite
Locality: Star of the Congo mine, Lubumbashi, Southern area, Shaba Copper belt, Shaba, Congo
Description: A thick cross section of a malachite stalactite with an outer layer of chrysocolla. Nice chatoyancy on the malachite and botryoidal surface texture on the chrysocolla, which shows some damage on the exterior. This would be a great specimen to polish one or both ends and showcase the sharp concentric rings on the interior.
