Item Description
The memorable and beautiful pieces from Milpillas will go down as classics, if they are not already considered as such. Now that the oxidized zone at Milpillas has been mined through, you won't see any new pieces from this locality ever again, so get them while you can. This piece is a fine miniature of these famous pseudomorphs of Malachite after Azurite from this prestigious mine. The specimen features beautiful velvety, rich green colored crystals measuring up to 2.1 cm long on very minor matrix. The piece is crystallized all over, with no damage that I can find. From the collection of Les and Paula Presmyk.
