Kaokoveld, Kunene, Namibia
description:
The top side of this 8.5 x 5.5 x 4.0 cm matrix is mostly covered with beautiful sparkling deep green crystals of dioptase to 0.7 cm in size. Druses of micro crystalline quartz are scattered throughout. Very minimal micro-chipping, mainly confined to the edges. I think in very good condition and a beautiful example of the species from this area. Shipping weight: 0.34 pounds.
