Item Description
A highly unusual example of radial growth of needle-like crystals of malachite, forming a complete-all-around flying saucer of malachite! Primary malachite, in other words a natural malachite that is not a replacement of previous azurite, is actually quite rare from Tsumeb. This is a really cute small miniature example of unusual shape! The crystals are chatoyant, although this is hard to capture in a photo.
