description: From recent find in the Congo, very attractive specimen showing thin prismatic crystals of what were once either barite or azurite, these measuring to 1.5 and 2.0 cm in height, now replaced by the sky-blue sparkling chrysocolla across the top of this matrix. Accented beautifully with green micro crystals of malachite. Slight micro-chipping present, still in very good condition. A sparkling micro quartz crystal coating throughout makes this very attractive.
