Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Malachite, Cuprite
Locality: Mashamba West Mine, Kolwezi, Western area, Katanga Copper Crescent, Katanga (Shaba), Democratic Republic of Congo (Zaïre) (Locality at mindat.org)
Size: 6.0 x 3.8 x 2.4 cm.
An excellent and showy malachite with cuprite specimen from the famous Mashamba West Mine of Shaba Province, Zaire. Seven, sharp, lustrous, dark wine-red cuprite crystals to 6 mm are aesthetically scattered on a sculptural crust of blocky, primary malachite blades. The association is uncommon. Primary malachite of this quality is more significant, though, and also is not that common from Zaire or anywhere.
