A very aesthetic, fan-like cluster of very elongated, chatoyant, acicular, primary malachite crystals from recent finds at the Mashamba West Mine of Congo. A fine small miniature. Primary malachite is not that common worldwide and this is an excellent, complete-all-around example of the species and noted locale. Essentially pristine. Ex. D. Trinchillo Sr. Collection.
