Item Description
A RARE, impressive and colorful large combination pseudomorph plate from the Kaokoveld. Pretty teal-blue chrysocolla has replaced mounded spherical aggregates of primary malachite blades and are surrounded by starkly contrasting powder-blue chrysocolla, that has pseudomorphed sharp blocky calcite rhombs. Combination chrysocolla pseudomorphs of both malachite and calcite are EXTREMELY RARE from here and this is an outstanding large example.
