Dioptase
Comments
Description
Dioptase is known from a few world localities in superb quality specimens, but recently there was a find of new material in the Pool Region of the Congo. The best of these specimens show great color, with larger sized crystals and excellent gemminess. This particular specimen is filled with sharp, rich emerald green color Dioptase crystals measuring up to 2.0 cm forming a very attractive, 3-dimensional piece. This find seemed to be somewhat limited, and hopefully will produce more of this fine Dioptase.
