Light Blue CHRYSOCOLLA on TESSINER Habit QUARTZ and CALCITE from Switzerland
Fantastic group of quartz crystals with chrysocolla, calcite and mica. This specimen is distinguished by its excellent crystal formation, allowing the well-defined crystal faces to be fully appreciated. The naturally grown crystals display unique, intense color tones. Additionally, this specimen features a slightly smoky hue with inclusions and surface crystallizations of chlorite, adding to its elegance and refined aesthetic appeal.
The mineral is sensitive to UV light and becomes fluorescent and phosphorescent in red.
Perfect for collectors looking to enrich their collection with a rare and special mineral!

Scientific information: This specimen features quartz crystals in Tessiner habit, known for their elongated form, with inclusions of chrysocolla, calcite, and mica. The smoky hue is a result of natural irradiation, and the chrysocolla, a copper silicate mineral, adds a vibrant blue-green coloration.
Photos: The photos are taken under strong lighting to preserve the specimen’s natural colors and features. It is recommended to display the mineral in well-lit environments to fully appreciate its vibrant hues and structure.
Crystal therapy: Quartz is widely regarded for its amplifying properties in crystal therapy. The presence of chrysocolla is thought to provide calming and balancing energies, while calcite is believed to enhance emotional clarity and positivity. Mica is associated with reflection and balance, making this specimen a powerful tool for healing and energy work.
Shipping: Shipping is typically processed the day after the order is placed, with tracking provided. Special care is taken in packaging to ensure the safe delivery of the specimen. Orders from the same customer will be combined, and any excess shipping fees will be refunded as per agreement.
