The thousands of micro-crystals across the surface act as a natural glitter, catching light from every angle and creating a luminous, 'frosted' effect. We selected this piece for its balanced geometry and high-saturation color, representing the premier quality that has made the Mindingi Mine a legendary source for this rare mineral association.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSPECIMEN DETAILS\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"9,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eMineralogy:\u003c\/b\u003e Malachite with Drusy Quartz\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1414\" data-end=\"1434\"\u003eSurface Texture:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sparkling quartz druse over botryoidal malachite\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"9,2,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.9 x 9.1 x 2.2 cm (4.3 x 3.6 x 0.88 inches)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"9,3,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 182g (6.4 oz)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"9,4,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eStatus:\u003c\/b\u003e High-Luster Collector Specimen\u003cbr\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.mindat.org\/loc-4336.html\" title=\"Mindingi Mine\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLocality:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mindingi mine, Kambove, Haut-Katanga, DR Congo\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eAll specimens include a label bearing the mineral name and origin as well as provenance label(s) for the specimen, if any.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eNote: Each piece is handpicked for quality and uniqueness.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gatsby Gems","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51969545011475,"sku":"MAL-SPE-002","price":80.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/0611\/0227\/files\/IMG_20250627_101033_32d0f465-12e7-4a09-9722-acf8c6ebd932.jpg?v=1751040593","url":"https:\/\/gatsbygems.com\/products\/sparkling-malachite-drusy-quartz","provider":"Gatsby Gems","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
