Native Copper in Opal and Chrysocolla (New Find!)

Item Description

We are very happy to have been able to pick up a parcel of these unique and interesting stones, which are some of the most distinctive stones to come out of any locality in a long time. These gems came out in 2021, and we have good contact in Java who was able to secure a small parcel of high quality pieces for us. As you can see, this stone features a beautiful multicolor mix of Opal and Chrysocolla with colors ranging from a soft blue to sea-green hues, and even some small black patches, but the highlight is that there are brilliant bright metallic spots of Native Copper mixed in! The polish on the stone allows the Copper to really shine, and I'm certain it's the Copper content in the that is creating the lively blue and green colors in the gem as well. If you're a gem collector, this is something that I'm sure you've never seen before, as it's quite rare to find native elements incorporated into any kind of gems like this, let alone something so colorful and honestly beautiful. Don't pass this up, because we don't know if this find will produce more material, and sometimes these kind of discoveries have a tendency to be mined out quickly and disappear from the market.
