A striking, rare specimen featuring brilliant crystalline native gold perched on a contrasting matrix of deep green malachite, with black tenorite and quartz. This piece originates from the Congo, a region where visible native gold on malachite is exceptionally rare. The gold is well-exposed in vivid leaf-like formations, sitting beautifully against the green and black oxidized copper matrix. A collector’s piece with intense visual contrast, mineralogical interest, and high rarity from this source.
