Item Description

A hard to find and colorful association piece from a fairly obscure locality in Arizona, but a really interesting combo specimen featuring vibrant turquoise-blue botryoidal aurichalcite with scattered linings of rich royal-blue azurite on a layered gossan matrix. If you are an Arizona collector or a secondary copper mineral collector, here is an uncommon and aesthetic reference piece for you. Ex Harold Urish Collection and self-collected in December, 1989.
