You will receive one of the Pseudomorphs pictured.

Pseudomorphs are mineral specimens that have the external shape of one mineral but are composed of another.  The pseudomorph goethite after marcasite forms when marcasite is exposed to oxidizing conditions and starts to oxidize and break down. As the marcasite breaks down, goethite replaces it in the crystal structure, preserving the shape of the original marcasite crystal. The resulting specimen appears as a marcasite crystal, but is actually composed of goethite.

The Farafra Oasis, in the White Desert, has been known for a number of years to deliver incredible pseudomorph specimens. The pseudomorphs occur within the Cretaceous Khoman Chalk, from which the White Desert derives its name.

These specimens are remarkable for their relatively sharp marcasite crystal forms in aesthetic crystal clusters. They are in excellent condition.  This collector's specimen is unique, of great quality and ready for display.

This is a beautiful polished free form of Malachite from the Democratic Republic of Congo.  Malachite is perhaps the one of the most popular minerals for collectors due to its intense green color and sometimes beautiful, banded masses.

Africa contains several outstanding Malachite deposits. The mines at Katanga (Shaba), especially at Kolwezi, in the Congo (Zaire) produce Malachite in all sorts of odd shapes and forms, and are the source of the best banded, concentric, stalactitic and sparkling specimens.

Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection.
