The copper deposits discovered in the Urals in Russia in the 18th century are practically exhausted today. Probably the most beautiful polishable malachite in the world came from these deposits and still adorns many works of art, buildings, wall paneling ....and was the showpiece of the Russian tsars.
This rare specimen of URAL malachite comes from MELNORUDJANSK and is polished on one side.
