Connoisseur specimen from a small and unique find in Tantara Mine around 2010-11 of Shattuckite pseudomorph after Dioptase. The secondary Copper silicate Shattuckite replaces the first generation of Dioptase crystals. Shattuckite has intense and saturated dark blue color and velvet appearance. Some green Malachite grows above and adds a nice contrast. In excellent condition – some side contacts. On acrylic base.
Fantastic and one of a kind pseudomorph!
