Item Description

Rich, royal-blue, azurite blades cover this showy and excellent plate from the renowned Copper Mountain District of Morenci. Grayish-brown spherules of coronadite (for which this is the Type Locality) and scattered malachite are a nice accent. A bit of periphery wear is noted, but is a modest detraction. Highly representative and uncommon combination material from this noted locale. Ex Jaime Bird Collection.
