This is a very pretty, very busy shattuckite specimen from the Congo. It's deep blue, bright blue, and light blue. It's botryoidal with some nice chunky quartz bits.
Shattuckite forms around copper ore deposits, composed of oxidized copper, portions of water molecules, and silicon. It is a vibrant and diversely textured mineral that forms in intense light to deep blues. It often forms around other dramatic copper-derived minerals like malachite, chrysocolla, and azurite.
Shattuckite is often associated with intuition and psychic ability and is said to strengthen communication that resolves differences or brings about balance.
