Cornetite with Malachite

Kalabi Mine, Katanga (Shaba), Democratic Republic of Congo (Zaire)

5.8cm x 4.7cm x 3.1cm

Ex. Howard Belsky Collection No. 01060


Description/Interesting Notes:

A fantastic example of this rare copper species from the Congo!!! This specimen hosts a rich showing of lustrous, intensely colored crystals of cornetite that are handsomely accented by bright green crystals of malachite!!! The cornetite crystals exhibit the unique, characteristic intense blue color that the species is so prized for!!! Upon close inspection with a loupe or scope, one can see that the crystals are wonderfully well-well formed, with bright glassy luster, razor-sharp faces, and gemmy clarity!!! This specimen retains an old personal collection label from Howard Belsky as well!!! The pics hardly do it justice!!! Must be seen in person to be fully appreciated!!!
