Old material I had never even HEARD OF much less seen, this is a very rare example of chrysocolla from Quebec. I had no idea you could get copper minerals there, myself. These were collected in 1967 and only recently came to light in an old Canadian collection being sold off at the Springfield Show. This extra-rich specimen has a nice dark blue color and good relief
