PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Drusy Dolomite Coated Chrysocolla With Malachite & Heterogenite On Dolomite Matrix
Drusy-coated Chrysocolla Malachite on Dolomite is a remarkable mineral specimen that showcases a striking interplay of colors and textures. This unique formation features Chrysocolla and Malachite, two vibrant copper minerals, enhanced by a sparkling drusy coating and set against a base of Dolomite. Some specimens display stunning tabular Malachite crystals.
The Chrysocolla, known for its vivid blue-green hues, and the Malachite, with its rich, deep green tones, create a visually stunning contrast. The drusy coating adds a layer of tiny, glistening crystals over the Chrysocolla and Malachite, giving the specimen an extra touch of brilliance and texture. This sparkling surface catches the light beautifully, making the colors of the underlying minerals even more striking.
The Dolomite base provides a complementary neutral backdrop, highlighting the vivid colors of the Chrysocolla and Malachite. Its subtle texture and color contrast make it an ideal platform for showcasing the more vibrant mineral layers above.
