A superb specimen of kolwezite over richly fuchsia colored dolomite var. cobaltoan dolomite covering calcite crystal from Kansalawile Mine, Tenke-Fungurume area, Congo - Kinshasa. It displays transparent, sharp, rhombohedral calcite base. Cobaltoan dolomite layer covers the calcite. It is with an amazing and vivid fuchsia color. Above are seen green kolwezite clusters with a botryoidal habit. Kolwezite is a rare anhydrous Cu-Co carbonate.  This is a unique combo of two highly sought-after minerals. In very good condition – some calcite contacts. On acrylic base.

Striking!
