Fibrous Malachite from the Congo

Velvet grown from copper and time.

This Fibrous Malachite is pure mineral poetry. Instead of the familiar banded swirls, these specimens form in fine, hair-like crystal structures that radiate and shimmer in deep, electric green. The surface has a soft, almost velvety glow, but look closely and you’ll see thousands of microscopic fibers catching the light like mineral silk.

Malachite forms in copper-rich environments, and its vivid color comes directly from that copper content. Fibrous growth is especially prized by collectors because it reveals the mineral’s structure in a more raw, textural, and dimensional way than polished pieces ever could.

Each specimen features:
• Natural fibrous crystal formation
• Intense copper-green coloration
• Sculptural, display-worthy texture
• Completely untreated surface

Fibrous malachite is highly sought after by mineral collectors for its rarity and structure, especially when the fibers are dense and evenly formed. It is delicate compared to polished malachite, so handle gently and avoid prolonged moisture exposure.

Energetically, malachite is often associated with:
• Transformation and personal growth
• Protection and boundary strengthening
• Heart-centered courage
• Clearing stagnant energy

This piece feels alive. It carries the momentum of change. The deep forest green of renewal. The quiet force of something growing in darkness toward light.

Perfect for:
– Mineral collectors
– Copper mineral enthusiasts
– Heart chakra work
– Bold, earthy display decor

Dense. Textural. Luminous.

A stone that looks like it is still becoming.
