Description:Yes, this is a NATURAL specimen of chrysocolla! This was a find not too long back at the copper-rich Star of the Congo Mine, of chrysocolla that is so strange and pretty you can hardly believe it is real. The botryoidal surface looks like molten plastic, and is an intense, deep robins-egg blue. For color and uniqueness, this represents one of the most unusual new finds of the past couple of years! This striking, sculptural specimen is covered with beautiful chrysocolla!
