PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Gorgeous rare Ball Malachite on Quartzite & Basalt matrix specimens
Ball Malachite, a rare and eye-catching formation where malachite crystallizes into striking, spherical masses. These smooth, rounded nodules showcase the vibrant, signature greens of malachite, from solid, rich tones to mesmerizing concentric banding. Each sphere offers a unique texture, from glossy and polished surfaces to softer, fibrous, or botryoidal (grape-like) structures. Whether smooth or intricately textured, Ball Malachite brings nature’s artistry to life, making it a standout addition for collectors seeking something truly distinctive and beautiful.
