PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Exceptionally Rare & Stunning Shattuckite From Namibia
Introducing our exceptionally rare and breathtaking Shattuckite mined exclusively by us in Namibia. These remarkable specimens undergo meticulous local polishing in South Africa by the skilled hands of Gary, ensuring each piece is a true masterpiece.
Shattuckite, a captivating copper silicate hydroxide mineral, is celebrated for its crystalline structure within the orthorhombic – bipyramidal crystal system. Typically found in granular massive forms and fibrous acicular crystals, Shattuckite closely resembles Plancheite in appearance. Named after its discovery at the Shattuck Mine in Bisbee, Arizona, USA, our specimens are sourced from various deposits across Namibia, offering an array of color intensities, from light to deep blue.
