My uncle had this meteorite but lost his identification … can someone help me identify?

Hi everyone, I’m trying to gather some information about this meteorite from my uncle’s old collection
My uncle has been a collector for many years and used to buy pieces at auctions. He originally had two meteorites: one very large specimen that we know was from Sweden, and this smaller one shown here. Unfortunately, he is quite old now and no longer remembers where this particular piece came from or any details about the auction where he bought it.
This specimen weighs around 1.05 kg (about 1050 grams). That’s basically all the information I currently have about it.
I’d really appreciate any opinions regarding identification, possible classification, or even guesses about its origin. Thanks in advance for any help!

Is this a Dioptase ? I think it is from Namibia

My uncle have 5/6 dioptase all bigger than this one from tsumeb mine and from Congo , but this one didn’t have the card of its provenance and nothing associated, but it looks like a dioptase.
