Item Description
A classic display specimen of Azurite pseudomorphing to Malachite from the world famous locality of Touissit. The piece hosts a few rich azure blue bladed crystals with good luster and sharp faces, but the majority of them have already altered to mint green colored Malachite which are sitting on contrasting gossan matrix. A great piece to round out your Azurite suite, or even more specifically your collection of Azurites from Morocco. It's not 100% perfect but several of the crystals are pristine. The largest crystal measures 3.2 at its longest dimension. Valued at $950 in the inventory.
