Item Description
This specimen features good quality, botryoidal soft green to deep forest green color Malachite on matrix from the famous copper deposits in the Katanga Copper Crescent. It has a beautiful soft exterior appearance and a pleasing contrast. This is a good quality piece of this fairly common material, but as is the case with many plentiful localities, eventually they run out, and even the average pieces become desirable, so pick up a good one here for a great price. PLEASE NOTE: This piece weighs 2,177 grams (nearly 5 pounds), so there will be an additional shipping charge, please keep this in mind when bidding.
