Malachite ps. After Azurite

Item Description

An impressive two-sided pseudomorph from the now famous Milpillas Mine. A striking, sharp, 4.7 cm, pseudo of rich green, velvet malachite has pseudomorphed a large sharp azurite blade along with other crystals on this fine small cabinet. The bit of white matrix is a super contrast. The large pseudo is pristine on both sides. The smelter is converting to sulfide ore soon, indicating the oxide zone is about mined out. No more superb azurites and malachites will be forthcoming. Get a fine example of this varietal while you can!
