Superb, colorful, very well-crystallized specimen of Metatyuyamunite and Baryte on vivid blue-green Chrysocolla from the Mashamba West Mine, Mutshatsha, Lualaba, DR Congo. This is probably the best metatyuyamunite specimen I have seen from this locality and is stunningly beautiful under the microscope or loupe. Large, rich specimen as well!
