Peru is one of the world's recognised sources of high quality chrysocolla. Many specimens naturally include malachite and quartz, creating a combination of vivid blue, green and white that is highly regarded by mineral collectors.

Chrysocolla is a hydrated copper silicate that forms in the oxidised zones of copper deposits. The rich blue and green colours develop from the presence of copper, while the quartz adds durability and contrast to the finished specimen.
