Botryoidal Chrysocolla on Quartz
Quartz veins are formed when open fissures are filled with hot water during the closing stage of mountains forming and can be hundreds of millions of years old.
Chrysocolla is a copper silicate that typically forms as a pseudomorph following other copper based minerals. The form is usually botyoidal.
Our Chrysocolla is sourced ethically from the Tentadora Mine in the Castrovirreyna Province, Huancavellica District, Peru. This locale is known for these vibrant blue chrysocolla and quartz specimens.
Chrysocolla is tranquil and sustaining, a stone for communication, peace, and compassion.
Fun Fact: Cleopatra carried this stone with her at all times to increase her sensitivity and tolerance.
