Item Description

A very colorful and showy CABINET specimen of sparkly green malachite botryoids strikingly complimented by the powder-blue chrysocolla on the sculptural gossan matrix. This mine is also known as the famous Star of Congo Mine. The malachite botryoids are in excellent shape. Combination specimens of this size and quality are not that common.
