A BIG, SPECTACULAR plate of sparkly crystals of primary malachite, ringed and contrasting with a light blue-green chrysocolla, and, beneath that, green massive malachite. The good availability of copper minerals from Shaba Province should not make you underestimate these superb specimens - now is THE TIME to get them, while they are coming out! This one is really a showpiece! Most malachite crystals are actually replacements of previous azurite, hence my emphasis here on this being PRIMARY malachite crystallization 21.3 x 10.9 x 7.5 cm
