Kolwezite after Cuprite on Cobaltian Calcite (Ref: ST238)

Kolwezi Mining District, Lualaba, DR Congo
145mm x 90mm x 30mm
minID: T7Y-T5J
$900
Dark olive green Kolwezite pseudomorphs after Cuprite atop rhombs of pink Cobaltoan Calcite (or possibly Cobaltoan Dolomite) creating a stunning mixture of colors and forms. There are a few clusters of an earlier generation of botryoidal Kolwezite but the majority are angular crystals of the pseudomorphs. Kolwezite is a Copper Cobalt Carbonate Hydroxide and this is the type locality for the species. A beautiful large display piece and combination specimen of two desireable species together.
