Quantum Quattro is a rare stone that consists of 5 minerals: shattuckite, chrysocolla, dioptase, smoky quartz and malachite. This unique combination of colorful copper related minerals gives this gemstone a beautiful blue and green color. Quantum Quatro is only found in Namibia. Initially discovered in the 1990s in Namibia, Africa, Quantum Quattro is closely associated with copper-rich environments. It typically forms in the oxidation zones of copper deposits, where weathering and alteration processes give rise to secondary copper minerals.
