Azurite rosettes (old - Type Locality)

Item Description

A nifty thumbnail of two, intergrown, azurite rosettes of different size from this classic locale, the Type Locality for azurite. It shows the famous habit of radiating thick, lustrous, azurite-blue crystals, which this locality is famous for. The piece is much more impressive and 3-D in person, as each side and angle add a totally different perspective. A fine old-time specimen from this world famous copper mining district, closed by the end of the 19th century.
