🔬 Scientific Description

This specimen presents a thin but wide plate coated in vivid turquoise Chrysocolla with patches of deep green Malachite. The exposed cavity reveals granular secondary copper mineralization, indicating classic oxidation-zone formation. The host rock is iron-rich and displays weathered surface textures, contributing to the earthy contrast against the bright copper minerals. This type of mineral combination is typical of copper-oxide zones where Chrysocolla forms as a hydrated copper phyllosilicate, while Malachite develops through carbonate reactions.

Locality: Namibia

This specimen comes from the Kaokoveld, in Namibia’s Kunene region.
