TX96D8: Malachite after Cuprite

From old discoveries comes this Cuprite that has been psuedomorphised by Malachite. The piece is a floater, the crystal is well defined, and it has a form that is different from the typical ones. It also has the virtue of being on matrix, something that is not usual in material from this mine. A special classic specimen.

Price: [SOLD]

EG98AE2: Malachite after Cuprite and Azurite

Malachite pseudomorphous after Cuprite, one clearly dominant, beveled by the faces of the dodecahedron and with spherical Azurite aggregates. It is a nice miniature, an excellent French classic.
Chessy-les-Mines, Les Bois d'Oingt, Villefranche-sur-Saône, Rhône, Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes France
Specimen size: 1.8 × 1.3 × 1.6 cm = 0.71” × 0.51” × 0.63”

SV3100EPF: Malachite after Cuprite on Azurite with Baryte

A little eroded by the passage of time, but it is fascinating how the Cuprite pseudomorphed by Malachite has resisted perfectly and stands gracefully on the Azurite. Throughout the piece there are also the characteristic granular barytes, almost always reddish due to the presence of iron oxides. Chessy is the type locality for Azurite.
Chessy-les-Mines, Les Bois d'Oingt, Villefranche-sur-Saône, Rhône, Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes France
Specimen size: 3 × 2.3 × 1.8 cm = 1.18” × 0.91” × 0.71”

Main crystal size: 0.5 × 0.5 cm = 0.20” × 0.20”
Price: [SOLD]
