Torbernite (Ref: 17.1-143)
Musonoi Mine, Kolwezi, Katanga (Shaba), Democratic Republic of Congo (Zaire)
80mm x 43mm x 28mm
minID: H15-WL8
A big well crystallized plate of deep green Torbernite from the old finds at Musonoi. In fine condition, with individual crystals averaging over a Centimeter (up to 1.5CM). These top Congo specimens are from finds decades ago, these are already considered to be classics for the specie. Most of the crystals here are standing on edge with termination faces showing but a few are laying flat. The flat faces have a lighter green color and are a nice contrast to those showing darker edges. From: Well-Arranged Molecules
