Dioptase in Quartz
Dioptase is a very rare mineral, distinctive for its brightly green colour which varies from emerald green to bluish-green. If we look on its chemical structure, dioptase is a hydrous copper silicate. It forms tiny translucent crystals, which are mosty double terminated. Most famous sites are located in Kazachstan and Africa.
Special conditions/ treatment: Dioptase crystals are generally fragile and can easily break or crumble, and therefore care must be exercised when handling specimens.
Use: Our rough stones are a beautiful interior adornment – filling up a vase, fountain or a lamp with them creates an original design. In the exterior, they may be a perfect decoration of gardens. They are also suitable for mineralogist collections and exhibitions. Rough minerals may also be further processed, e.g. small crystals are ideal material for pendants.
About the product: We sell rough minerals in one-kilogram packages, but we also offer discounted value packages of 5 kg and 25 kg in a cardboard box. XXL-JUMBO sized stones are available only in the value packages of 5 kg and 25 kg.
