Massive Chrysocolla of high quality with a light blue color.

Chrysocolla is a mineral that forms in the upper part of copper deposits, the so-called oxidation zone, so it is easy to find chrysocolla associated with other copper minerals such as cuprite, azurite, malachite and many other minerals. copper secondaries. This characteristic made it used by ancient miners as an indicator on the surface of copper deposits.

    The piece you receive may differ slightly from the photo shown as the minerals are natural and no piece is identical. The size is approximate.
