Item Description

Malachite is actually quite rare from Tsumeb in crystals, as opposed to as alterations after Azurite. This thin matrix plate featiures sharp, needle-like malachite crystals to 4 mm. It is from the noted collection of Namibian material built by Shields and Frances Flynn. This is not a partricularly valuable specimen, but ANY malachite of this form from Tsumeb is notable, and it happens to be very pretty and sparkling.
