Primary Malachite on Shattuckite (ex Charlie Key Collection)

Item Description

A superb thumbnail specimen featuring long, fibrous, lustrous crystals of green Malachite is a "bulb"-like formation. This material is hard to find on the market and certainly worth picking up now that the area seems to be producing very little. Ex Charlie Key personal collection. Charlie is arguably the most sucessful dealer of the second half of the 20th century, along with being the namesake for TWO mineral species (Keyite and Ludlockite).
