Malachite Slabs and offcuts for Lapidary
Slabs and offcuts of green Malachite from various locations, primarily Africa. Malachite is a green Copper ore that is often used as a decorative stone due to its decorative banding.
These pieces have either been polished and then broken or damaged, or are cut but unpolished. Their only real use is for recutting - this should only be done by experienced lapidary artists with suitable extraction though, as airborne Malachite dust is toxic.
