Nchanga Mine, Chingola, Copperbelt, Zambia

A rarity one might first think was from Onganja in Namibia, but is not. We bought these from the mining engineer of this remote mine, little known for specimens.This crystal, 1 of 3, is a complete floater with no visible points of attachment, this well formed, lustrous cuprite crystal has been altered to malachite.
