Item Description

An attractive large thumbnail specimen of Malachite pseudomorphs after Azurite from the now famous discovery of 2007 at Milpillas. Although there were many of these specimens available a few years ago, fine quality, undamaged display specimens are few and far between. This piece features good quality, velvety, dark forest-green crystals of Malachite up to 2.1 cm that have altered from Azurite. Very little damage, and great quality for the find.
