AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Dioptase with Malachite – Kapata Mine, DR Congo
Here we have a great specimen of dioptase crystals combined with malachite. The color contrast is exceptional, and the composition is highly aesthetic. Sourced from the lesser-known Kapata Mine in the Katanga region, this piece is a fine example of the quality and rarity collectors seek from this locality.
This specimen comes from a reputable source and has not been altered or treated in any way—what you see is its natural form. The photos are taken under daylight-equivalent LED lighting to show the specimen as accurately as possible. Please note: some colors can be difficult to capture accurately in photographs. I do my best to present the specimen faithfully.
All items are professionally packed and shipped with tracking. I have many years of experience in international mineral sales and strive to provide accurate descriptions and high-quality service. Feel free to reach out with any questions—I'm happy to help.
