Item Description
A striking and sculptural malachite specimen from the famous Morenci Mine. Bubbly, botryoidal, malachite of at least four green hues rests on a thin layer of banded malachite. The overall form is that of a bulbous, nubby, evergreen shrub. Pristine, except for very trivial periphery wear. Exceptional, uncommon and older material of this varietal from this noted locale. Ex Harold Urish Collection # 835.
