2.75″ Drusy Chrysocolla with Dendrites from Africa 8.9 oz

This piece weighs 8.9 oz and measures 2.75 x 2.5 x 1.75″. From the Congo.

This stunning Cyan colored chrysocolla features thick botryoidal masses covered in a glittering drusy coating. Especially interesting in this piece are the plentiful dendrites found on every surface, and an interesting layer of calcite-like minerals visible on one side. Chrysocolla is typically found as a crust on a host stone, as seen here. The color comes from copper ores contained within the mineral.

Chrysocolla resonates with the throat and heart chakras, and is said to promote harmony, level-headedness, and clarity of thought.
