This natural dioptase crystal cluster from Likasi, Democratic Republic of Congo shows vivid emerald-green colour with bright, glassy faces across the piece. The coverage is even, with good internal clarity visible on several crystals and attractive contrast against the pale matrix. No polishing; the surfaces are fully natural.

At 50 g, it’s a compact, well-balanced miniature from a classic copper-district locality where specimen-grade clusters are less available than jewellery rough. Ideal for collectors who like strong colour, sharp crystal geometry and adding to a rare mineral collection.
