Chrysocolla with Cuprite, Native Copper, Malachite & Azurite

Bekiady, Soalala District, Boeny Region, Mahajanga Province, Madagascar

5cm x 4.4cm x 3.9cm


Description/Interesting Notes:

A rare and unique example of cuprite and related copper-bearing species from Madagascar!!! This specimen hosts a rich showing of deep reddish cuprite in association with a significant showing of chrysocolla, malachite, native copper and azurite in a basalt matrix!!! There is a handsome vug of botryoidal chrysocolla (actually a coating of chrysocolla on top of numerous, almost spheroidal malachite balls) that has an attractive light blue color in addition to numerous significant areas of blue green and green chrysocolla!!! The native copper can be seen as masses poking out from the cuprite and basalt matrix!!! There are numerous areas of radiating, fibrous green malachite crystals present throughout the specimen as well as scattered sprays of intense royal blue azurite!!! You simply do not see specimens like this from Madagascar!!! The pics hardly do it justice!!! Must be seen in person to be fully appreciated!!!
