This is an attractive, fascinating Fibrous Malachite, unusually larger size single "ball" formation. No discernible contact point with the Malachite is evident. Though a mystery, it's possible that the whitish mineral was some form of stalactite-stalagmite type structure that the malachite grew on or around, but it is not clearly evident. It does not appear that the malachite broke off or was removed from another mineral or matrix.

55 grams; 1.4” x 1.14” x .95”
