Chrysocolla (Canada - rare locale!)

Item Description

Older material I had never even heard of much less seen, this is a very rare and colorful example of chrysocolla from Quebec. Bright sky-blue to green chrysocolla spherical aggregates to crust compose this showy piece of solid chrysocolla. I had no idea you could get copper minerals there, myself. These were collected in 1967 and only recently came to light in an old Canadian collection being sold off at the Springfield Show a few years back.
