Chrysocolla with Dioptase on Matrix - Kaokoveld, Namibia

🔬 Scientific Description

This specimen displays a rich coating of turquoise Chrysocolla, with exposed deeper teal zones indicating Dioptase crystal growth beneath the surface. A small cluster of white quartz microcrystals is visible along the upper center, contrasting sharply with the copper-rich matrix. The mineralization pattern suggests multi-stage copper oxidation, with Chrysocolla forming as a hydrated copper phyllosilicate and Dioptase developing in pockets where silica concentration was higher
