2.5" Quartz with Chrysocolla from Tentadora Mine
Approx. Dimensions: 2.5x1.25x1 inches
Approx. Weight: 46.8 grams
Locality: Tentadora Mine, Huancavelica, Peru
This specimen features a single, well-formed quartz point coated in botryoidal chrysocolla from the Tentadora Mine in Peru, a locality known for producing some of the finest quartz and copper-mineral combinations in the world. Chrysocolla is a hydrated copper silicate that forms in the oxidation zones of copper deposits and is prized for its natural blue and green hues. On quartz, it often develops in smooth, rounded “grape-like” formations that highlight the crystal’s shape rather than obscure it. Collectors seek these pieces for their clean crystal form, strong color contrast, and the rarity of intact single points with uniform chrysocolla coverage from this mine.
