Hemimorphite (fine blue color) (2020 discovery)

Item Description

Over the years, there have been a few important discoveries of attractive blue Hemimorphite from a few localities in the renowned copper deposits in Republic of the Congo (Brazzaville). In May of 2020 we picked up a small but good quality parcel of new material from the M'Fouati Mine. These new specimens have excellent color and the vast majority are good sized display specimens. This cabinet sized piece features a coverage of beautiful rich sky blue colored botryoidal Hemimorphite which can be seen on both sides of the specimen. A very attractive and fine quality example of these beautiful new specimens. This is almost certainly copper-bearing material, and it show decent translucency when backlit.
