Item Description

Atacamite is well-known from this extinct copper deposit. Sparkly dark green atacamite crystals cover much of the sculptural cluster of intergrown malachite nodules on this showy and excellent combination. The periphery wear reveals the banded radial growth of the malachite, adding character.
