Malachite on Quartz

Dimensions: 3.6 x 3.4 x 2.8cm Location: Mindingi Mine, Kambove, Haut-Katanga, DR Congo These malachites are part of the new pockets found since the 2020s, the quality here is very bright which is not necessarily the case for all the pieces discovered. Beautiful harmony of this small set. Dimensions without the acrylic base, which is supplied with the mineralogical specimen. The mineral is not glued to the base (soft putty).
