KI09 Barite with Malachite
Shangulowe Mine, Kambove District, Lualaba, D.R. Congo
5.4x 5.2x 2.9 cm
$385

A beautiful example of barite crystals on matrix, accompanied by contrasting green malachite. Although some material has been found recently, this is an older piece and the arrangement of the crystals, standing upright on their matrix, is quite aesthetic. The three dimensionality of the piece and lack of color contrast between the crystals makes it a little difficult to photograph and convey the form-- a video can be viewed here:
