Chrysocolla is quite precious, rare mineral found in copper mines in Peru. In terms of its chemical composition, it is a hydrated copper phyllosilicate. It usually forms green-blue kidney-shaped or stalactite-like aggregates or crusts with different thickness. Chrysocolla is noted for its sharp green-blue colour, which used to be sought-after by some of the Native American cultures. It often contains an admixture of malachite. Our stones represents outstanding natural combination of chrysocolla with deep green malachite.

About the product: The box contains manually polished chrysocollas, may contain also 1 or 2 pieces of a pure malachite. The price is per 1 box. Stones are carefully arranged into three-layered paperboard boxes - these are firm and resistant, which makes them easy to store. The boxes are wrapped into stretch cling, which prevents them from damage. Folded boxes provide a complex presentation of our minerals.
