Item Description

Sharp, prismatic, terminated blades of malachite pseudomorphs after azurite crystals are very aesthetically clustered on the hefty gossan matrix on this showy and excellent, classic old-timer from the famous mines at Bisbee. The pseudos reach 3.0 cm (doubly terminated) and the crossed pair and the fan are remarkable. The six major crystals are essentially pristine and the bit of bruising to other crystals is certainly only a modest detraction to this very fine old-timer from the Bob Trimingham Collection. Old classics, hard to find today! Valued $500
