Ex. Eric Quinter Collection 

Excellent, colorful, well-crystallized specimen of Uranophane, Cuprosklodowskite, and Malachite in altered Digenite matrix from the famous Musonoi Mine, Kolwezi, Mutshatsha, Lualaba, DR Congo. Fine Musonoi mine specimen, excellent under the microscope or loupe! This material is getting quite hard to come by these days! This was originally in the collection of noted Belgian mining engineer and mineral dealer Henri Vandormael. Rare!
