Description from the seller

Sample of fibrous malachite originating from the Mindingi mine, in the heart of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, a site renowned for its exceptional copper minerals. Characterized by a rich fabric of fibrous crystals, this piece combines the intricate beauty of nature with geological craftsmanship, creating a botryoid shape that is a visual marvel. Malachite, with its intense green color and unique formations, has undergone geological processes that gave life to this spectacular specimen. Its fibrous crystals merge in a harmony of shapes, offering a breathtaking view that captures the complexity and beauty of our planet.
