Shattuckite is a striking secondary copper silicate prized for its vivid blue coloration and distinctive fibrous crystal habit. Specimens from Kandesei, Opuwo Rural, Kunene Region, Namibia, are particularly appreciated for their rich blue colour and varied mineral associations. This specimen features bright blue fibrous shattuckite occurring across a contrasting quartz matrix, with a particularly attractive covering of clear, lustrous druzy quartz across the upper surface. The combination of saturated blue and sparkling, translucent quartz creates an appealing contrast of colour and texture, making this an attractive example from a notable Namibian locality.
