Dioptase
Kimbedi, Pool Region, Republic of Congo (Brazzaville)
Small Cabinet, 6.7 x 4.5 x 4.0 cm
SOLD
Dioptase is known from a few world localities in superb quality specimens, but recently there was a find of new material in the Pool Region of the Congo. These specimens show great color, with larger sized crystals and excellent gemminess. This particular specimen is filled with sharp, rich emerald green color Dioptase forming a very attractive three-dimensional specimen. The largest crystal measures 9 mm. This find seemed to be somewhat limited, and hopefully will produce more of this fine Dioptase.
