Excavated from the Dongchuan Cu ore field from May to June 2021, these new combo specimens WOW the Chinese mineral collecting world.  Micro crystals of yellow-green Malachite crystals aesthetically encrust the Quartz cluster, with a second generation of Malachite crystal growth, so amazing!  They are highly crystalized in a bright lime-green color, adding extra color and texture to the piece, very attractive.  Obtained directly from the miner’s home on-site, this is not only a fine specimen but also an outstanding combination rarity of mineral history, from time and place.  Comes with a high quality copper-wired display stand.
