PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Congo's Finest Export: Chrysocolla

Chrysocolla, renowned for its captivating cyan (blue-green) color, stands out as a premier export from Congo. This mineral is a minor ore of copper and displays a hardness range between 2.5 and 7.0. It forms primarily in the oxidation zones of copper ore bodies and is commonly found as botryoidal or rounded masses, crusts, or vein fillings.

Congo is renowned for producing some of the finest Chrysocolla specimens available, characterized by their striking color and unique formations. Although natural Chrysocolla specimens are less frequently available compared to polished items, they are highly valued for their beauty and rarity. The material often occurs alongside Malachite, Quartz, Limonite, Azurite, Cuprite, and other secondary copper minerals, enhancing its visual appeal and collectible value.

The supply of Chrysocolla from Congo can be variable, with polished items being more readily available than raw specimens. The rich, vibrant hues and distinctive formations make Congo's Chrysocolla a coveted gem in the world of minerals.
