Description

Descloizite, a vanadate of lead, zinc and copper, appears here in fine greenish-petaled crystals on a brown gangue.
Samples from this deposit are rare, and so is its quality.
From the M’Fouati copper-lead-zinc deposit in Congo Brazzaville (Republic of Congo).
Here’s a video of this beautiful descloizite crystal from Congo:
