Cuprite Crystal Mineral Specimen with Malachite, 1.55" Semi-Polished Stone from D.R. Congo (32.06g)

$14.00

  • Details
    This one-of-a-kind natural Cuprite with Malachite specimen from the Democratic Republic of Congo features a distinctive elongated, irregular shape with predominantly deep reddish-brown Cuprite and scattered patches of green Malachite. The Cuprite displays a rich, dark chocolate-red coloration with a smooth, polished luster across much of its surface, while small areas of green Malachite and naturally textured mineral material provide subtle color variation. Originally raw material, this specimen was gently tumbled and partially polished, developing smooth, rounded edges and glossy surfaces while retaining some of its original rugged texture, natural contours, and shallow indentations. Its unusual shape and combination of polished and unpolished areas make it an unique small specimen.
