Summary

Description
English: Copper, Papagoite, Quartz
Locality: Messina mine, Messina District, Limpopo Province, South Africa (Locality at mindat.org)
Size: small cabinet, 7.0 x 3.7 x 2.6 cm
Papagoite and Copper included in Quartz
Usually, papagoite is dispersed in veils, but in this piece it is extremely concentrated in richness and in color saturation, right at the tip! This is a phenomenal crystal with unusually vivid coloration. The termination is sharp and complete, unusually pristine. Note also the slight wisps of copper inside, dispersed in the zone of deep blue papagoite. A classic, unique to this locality, such crystals are highly desirable in this quality. Papagoite is much rarer, here, than the ajoite inclusions. MUCH better in person, this is one of the sharpest such examples that I expect to be able to offer. It is from new finds in late 2009.
