Featured VINTAGE MAYAN vs CONQUISTADORS CHESS SET - MADE OF STONE? MALACHITE?

I found this chess set yesterday; when I picked it up I was shocked at how heavy it is - it has to weigh over 20 pounds!
Researching it I found it is a Mayans vs Conquistadors chess set & I think they pieces are made of malachite - except I haven't been able to find another with red pieces? I have found them with green and black, but that's all.
Are these made of malachite? If not then what?
Thank you!
PS - If these sell on eBay instead of local, the shipping cost is going to be something else with that weight!

 

I don't see any malachite, journey. It is stone chip in resin.
Malachite is a green semi-precious stone.

 

Resin frit bits everywhere, check out horses nether regions and one of them has lost an ear.

 

It's a handsome set. I think of this stuff as mid-century.

(So many different themes for chess set: my favorite was capitalists vs communists)

 

Very nicely put.

 

I'd think much more recent. Earlier Mexican chess sets were onyx.

I wouldn't be surprised if they were still making these.

 

This seller bought his in México in 1981.
