Natural Blue Shattuckite Cobbed Specimens
Exceptionally Rare & Stunning Shattuckite From Namibia
Shattuckite mined exclusively in Namibia. Shattuckite, a Copper Silicate Hydroxide mineral, is known for its crystalline structure within the orthorhombic, bipyramidal crystal system. Typically found in granular massive forms and fibrous acicular crystals, Shattuckite closely resembles Plancheite in appearance. Named after its discovery at the Shattuck Mine in Bisbee, Arizona, USA, our specimens are sourced from various deposits across Namibia, offering an array of color intensities, from light to deep blue.
