AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

From our selection of collectible minerals we present a rare specimen of Kolwezite on Cobaltocalcite from the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

Additionally, it is characterized by the presence of green Kolwezite, a very rare mineral that takes its name from the mining city of Kolwezi, accompanied by fuchsia Cobaltocalcite that enhances its aesthetic value; the rarity of these minerals and their historic provenance emphasize its mineralogical importance. The specimen stands out for the quality of crystallization and for the overall aesthetic balance, with features that enhance its natural structure and visual impact.

It is an ideal specimen for mineral collections, display, and for those who appreciate the natural beauty of minerals, including in the realm of crystal therapy and lithotherapy, according to the properties traditionally associated with the mineral species.

All minerals are 100% natural and untreated, except for rare exceptions always indicated in the description. The photographs are taken with professional lighting to best enhance colors and details; however, slight variations in shade may occur depending on the device or ambient light.

Shipping is carried out via reliable express couriers carefully selected, with fast delivery (in many cases 1-2 working days in Europe), tracked and insured shipping and professional and secure packing, as confirmed by customer reviews. Deliveries can also take place the day after payment depending on the destination.

It is possible to accumulate multiple purchases and receive them in a single shipment, even from auctions with different deadlines, simply contacting us to organize the consolidation. For important pieces direct home delivery by appointment or at major European fairs is also available.
