A NOTE FROM NICK
White Botryoidal Hemimorphite with Chrysocolla and Malachite on Dolomite matrix.
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Rare Hemimorphite from the Congo
Hemimorphite is an exceptionally rare Zinc Silicate mineral, found only in a few locations, including the Congo. In over 35 years, we've only come across it twice! This mineral often forms stunning blue botryoidal clusters with a pearly sheen. Its vibrant coloration is influenced by both Zinc and Copper, sometimes resembling Veszelyite in form and color. Hemimorphite is typically associated with other minerals like Smithsonite, Cerussite, and Malachite, making it a highly sought-after specimen for collectors.
