Malachite Crystals on Copper Wire


Malachite crystals which were formed rapidly. These authentic semi-precious stones were bought from dealers in the Congo who obviously found a way of growing them rapidly in the malachite mines by allowing the seepage to crystallize on copper wires. Note the copper wires in the broken fingers of the crystals. Formations of crystals, stone or fossils can thus be very rapid and does not require millions of years. Reports of fossilization and rapid rock formation are well known, with fossil hats having formed in mines and ships bells and bottles being encased in solid rock.
