Description

This specimen is quite different for this find – the colbaltoan dolomite crystals are a more delicate pink colour, bright, but a lighter hue. Great glassy lustre, lots of sparkle. Sharp dark green primary malachite crystals in association. In very good condition, some spots with missing crystals, and a bit of chipping on the malachite. A pretty display piece.
