This Peruvian mineral specimen displays excellent chrysocolla crystallization over quartz in a stunning array of blues and teals. Multiple growth stages produced intricately formed crystals with exceptional color saturation. From the Tentadora Mine in the Julcani Mining District. The Julcani Mining District of Peru sits atop a mineralogically rich volcanic complex that has yielded silver, copper, gold, and other materials since the 1940s. While silver remains the primary export from this region, collectors prize it equally for striking mineral specimens like this vibrant chrysocolla and quartz combination from the Tentadora Mine.
