Item Description
This is a rarity from the standpoint of the association from this area. The piece came labeled as "Globe, Ariz." on the base, with no specific locality, but I think it could be from the Blueball Mine. The specimen is half of an Azurite concretion which has been opened to reveal small GEM quality, bladed crystals of Azurite inside the crystalline vug. If you collect Arizona minerals or unusual association specimens, don't miss out on this hard to find piece from Globe.
