Malachite

The slender, sharply defined crystals display an elegant arrangement of intersecting and radiating formations, faithfully retaining the original crystal habit of the azurite. Their richly textured surfaces and intense green coloration create a striking contrast with the delicate beige tones of the surrounding matrix.

A highly distinctive example of mineral replacement from the celebrated Kerrouchen locality, combining fascinating mineralogical transformation with sculptural aesthetics.
