Description from the seller

Watch a video of this specimen by following the Vimeo link below: https://vimeo.com/1136864624/ef7ccddad3

This is a beautiful specimen featuring glossy clear baryte crystals with green zonation (probably due to micro colloidal inclusions of malachite) in combination with a carpet of malachite-chrysocolla—a distinctive combination typical of the Shangulowé Mine in the Democratic Republic of Congo.
