Description

Description of the specimen — Azurite & micro-malachite (Kolwezi, DR Congo)

This azurite from the Kolwezi area (DR Congo) shows a compact structure with a deep blue colour typical of this copper carbonate. On its surface, very fine microcrystals of malachite are irregularly scattered, visible only at close range and highlighted under raking light.

Collected in 2015, this 37 × 37 mm specimen stands out for the sharpness of its reliefs and for the azurite–malachite association, well known but seldom observed in such a finely developed form.
